ALT-3 Gift Ideas for Sports Fans
If you know the person's favorite team then you have the potential to buy a gift they will love. Teams from high school, college, and pro levels are now branding their logos and names on everything from doormats to beer mugs and dog collars to baby clothing. The possibilities are endless if you figure out which team is their favorite.
Other options include searching on eBay for great collectible items like autographed balls or cards or even tickets to special sporting events. This is especially helpful if you know their favorite team.
But what if you don't know their favorite team? Even if looking around their home doesn't give you any clues and their friends are clueless, never fear because there is always something for a sports fan. Consider a gift card to a place such as Modells or Dicks where they can purchase merchandise from their favorite local team or even athletic equipment or wear. Gift cards to places such as a sports bar or Hooter's means they can go out a night with their friends and enjoy some of their favorite sport's games live on big screen TVs with good food and good beer. Always a favorite.
You can also do things such as purchase season tickets for their favorite team or even go all out and rent out a skybox at their favorite team's next game. Again if you don't know their favorite team you can even buy gift cards for companies such as Ticketmaster that allow them to purchase tickets to their favorite upcoming sporting event.
Going back to if you know their favorite sport or team, don't worry if they already have a ton of team related items; their are literally thousands of products branded for many teams and a true fan of a certain team never grows tired of receiving cool gifts and items with their team logo or name on it.
