Looking for help finding an A&M Christmas present for my dad.

My dad is an A&M grad and I was looking to get him an A&M-related Christmas gift. He has basic fan stuff like shirts, hats, decals, etc. Can any of y'all provide any ideas on a unique gift idea for an aggie? The admins kindly granted me access to this board to ask this question, so thank you admins.
Also wanted to take the opportunity to say that I haven't been to a game at Kyle Field in about 10 years - grew up going to A&M games with my dad, and the stadium looks incredible. Went to Dixie Chicken for old times' sake and played pool and listened to old country music all day until going to the Letterman's Association tailgate and the LSU game. Fans always respectful and the game atmosphere was a ton of fun.
Thanks again for your suggestions

Custom-made jizz jar is at the top of every aggie's wishlist.

Nice, I will look into that. Definitely have the right mindset. Is it a brick you keep or do they lay they brick somewhere?

It's a brick you keep. I got her the personalized with her name and graduating year.

Break Geoff Ketchum's nose. Soak up the blood with a 12th-man towel. It will be a conversation piece he can treasure for a lifetime.

Be careful though, he might bite your hand thinking it was a chicken wing

There's a mini version on that site for like 30 bucks.

I would get him something small, but then also include a note saying you are taking him to a game next year at Kyle. Or you could get him something awesome and take him to a game for his birthday. But take your dad to a game. You will both remember that forever. Football is fun, especially with your family.

I would but he already has season tickets and goes to every home game. He's not real old or anything he's still in his 50s, it was just that I personally had not been to a game at Kyle field since high school. He just has EVERYTHING and it's hard to find him something unique.

Get him an ugly A&M Christmas sweater

I actually ended up getting him the hover helmet, I had never seen one before

It's the latest Aggie must have

Man. That helmet is awesome. I think I will get my dad the LSU one. Is the case worth the 50 bucks? I'm tempted to go without it.

I don't have one but they have been pumping them on TexAgs for the last year
You may get a discount if you say TexAgs

I didn't get the glass case because it is kind of cool being able to touch the helmet in mid air like in the demonstration videos.

Awesome. Thanks for the advice.
