Today's Holiday Gift Guide item is for the Penn State football fan in your life.


When you go to a Penn State home football game there are certain things you expect to see. Joe Paterno, the Blue Band drum major make his flip, the "We are...Penn State!" cheer, a Nittany Lions victory and fans donning the game day button. Did you know that there is a book dedicated to those buttons?
  • B/R Ticket Guide


The Penn State Football Button Book by Martin Ford and Russell Ford is the perfect encyclopedia for the massive PSU button collection and would be a terrific gift for enthusiasts of the buttons. From Joe Paterno's top 100 games to a year by year photo archive of each button from 1972 to 2003 (My copy ends in 2003 but I believe it may have been updated since then - any confirmation of that would be appreciated). For the hard core collectors there is also a record of alternate versions of the game day buttons and other non-traditional buttons.

The book retails for $15.96 on Amazon and should be available in a book store near you. You can place your order online right through the store as well!

Remember to check back daily for the daily gift idea in the 2008 Nittanydelphia Holiday Gift Guide!
