Arcade-Themed Throws

Reminisce with this Pac-Man Blanket

— October 2, 2012 — Art & Design
Stay warm while playing video games all winter long as you cozy up with the Pac-Man blanket. Made out of fleece, this throw blanket would look great lying across your favorite gaming sofa or as a blanket in your bedroom.

Adding a nostalgic old-school arcade game theme to any room, this blanket is a must-have for anyone who wants to incorporate fun and playful accessories to their home decor. The black blanket features a print of the classic Pac-Man scenario pretty much everyone in the English-speaking world is familiar with; Pac-Man is about to reach a pellet that will give him immunity, but he is cornered by two ghosts and, all of a sudden, it's game over.

Relive one of your favorite childhood arcade games with this cozy Pac-Man blanket.
