If dad likes a good drinking game it doesn’t get much more basic than Spin the Shot. It’s a bit like spin the bottle but with drinking instead of kissing. Place a shot, spin the arrow, and whoever it lands on is the lucky or unlucky contestant.
This showerhead changes colors to give dad a unique showering experience. It’s one of those gifts that he probably didn’t know he wanted, and probably didn’t know they made, but once he sees it and uses it he’ll be glad he has it.

The ham dogger is like eating a hot dog that’s made out of ground beef. It’s easier to hold than a hamburger, but beefy like a burger. Top it the same way you’d top a burger or a hot dog, and use a hot dog bun instead of a burger bun.
