100 Father's Day Gift Ideas

From Booze to Barbeques, These Quirky Finds Are Sure to Please

— June 18, 2011 — Special
With Father's Day fast approaching, finding that perfect gift can be super stressful! Thinking outside the box to avoid stereotypical dad gifts is not always easy, especially when you know just where to find that nice new pair of socks that looks just like the one you bought him last year and the year before that.

These Father's Day gift ideas are spectacular twists on the conventional gift. While there's nothing wrong with grilling utensils, neckties, and gold clubs and patio furniture, there are plenty of quirky and fun twists on these gifts that are practical and are sure to make Dad laugh. No matter what kind of archetype your old man falls under -- an athlete, a jokester, a drinker, a chef or all of the above -- there is something in this list for every man on his special day.
