Thanksgiving day high school football

I just came back from watching my nephew play their annual Turkeyday game. The Penn Ridge Rams defeated the Quakertown Panthers 14-10 on a pretty muddy field. 35 min up the road Phillipsburg NJ was taking on Easton PA in a game being shown by ESPN 2. Quakertown was playing their 77th game vs. Penn Ridge. Quakertowns line led by Rutgers recruit Caleb Ruch, who is my nephew, dominated the line of scrimmage but the off. could only muster up 10 points. Down East these turkey day games are pretty common. Would anything like this be possible or would it be popular here in the west? Easton played this morning and will play again Saturday night in the PIAA playoffs. I no it would never happen but some games of interest could be Ridge vs. Bedford, NBC vs. Central type games. The Bedford game could also be Everett.
