This is a thread about gift ideas guys actually like. We understand y'all are sentimental, among other things, but guys are pretty simple and might not find meaning in the very thoughtful, and appreciated, things you get us.

Guys let your gift ideas go wild and direct your woman to this thread at some point. I'll start.

A bat. A Louisville Slugger. It was an MLB grade bat with my favorite team logo (Alabama Crimson Tide) and my name on it (Stacked's name is Patrick R. Davis, I don't care if you know. I'll invite you for a beer if you find me.) It was $50 from louisvillesluggergifts.com. This is a cool gift.



Next.

#1 BJ, and it is free!

#2 Steak and booze, and pretty low cost

After that it is all pretty down hill.

Definitely cool.

Ladies, take note here. Get your guy a record player and some of his favorite bands on vinyl record. This would be a fricking great gift.

Blow job is ALWAYS a perfect gift. This cannot be overstated.

Tickets to see your team play.

Call me crazy but Blow J's with the mouth should always be on the menu. Has it come to this being a gift?

I agree.

How does an icebreaker sex act, one of the first things a girl does with a new guy become a gift?

I blame the middle aged-out of shape guy for starting the 'steak n blow job day' thing. Anyone that says that I immediately think is a dumbass.

Hey THANKS. My mom was looking for a gift for my stepfather on an anniversary. He has EVERYTHING and they dont hurt for money. This is a great gift as he is a crazy NY Yankee fan.

Those bats are awesome and shockingly heavy as a mother fricker. Gives you insight on how strong those guys have to be to swing those things.

I'll throw another out there just because I think this would be cool.

Bourbon glasses with your city map on it.

They have to be educated or they will get you tickets to the wrong damn thing. That or they thunk bad seats are a gift.

Cheese grits hits on another really good point. There's thing's we don't want you to buy us because we may have a very particular taste in something. Namely... billfolds.

But if you girls really know your dude, you could hit a grand slam by going for one of these things and coming through with the win.

Correct

To take it a step further don't buy your man a canoe! (a gift you want him to have instead of something you actually want)

Clothes, cologne, and the like are the way you want us to look or smell but that does not mean it is really a gift to us. More like a directive.

Kbar knows my sports preferences (and shares a couple of them), fortunately.

I'm not a seat snob, so that's not a big deal to me. Some of the best times I've ever had at a sporting event have been in the nosebleeds.

It is more of an age thing. The older you get, your eyes get worse and you need to be closer. In your 40's you stop wanting to be at the top of the venue. In your 60's the stairs start becoming an issue. In your 80's you just want to be near a bathroom.
