The Definitive List of Playoff Accessories for October

I don’t know about you but IMHO MLB needs to take a chapter from its NHL brethren and offer beer and liquor for purchase until the game is over.  At the very least they need to keep pouring for the necessary 9 innings!   But they don’t, and such is life.  So necessity breeds innovation, and we get these bad ass flasks

And if you’re bringing along someone with a bag you can tuck in the ‘ol Bible flask bible flask

Even the most die hard of fans are forced to miss a game during the playoffs, albeit work or travel. With this laptop you can make a clear statement to your stuffy coworkers what you’d rather be doing with your time.yankees computer

Unless you were blessed by the grace of God to be born in the City of Angels (and Dodgers), playoff games in October can be pretty chilly. This aint no 1980s Starter Jacket, the internal self-heating system is guaranteed to keep you toasty in extra innings, and the USB charging station will keep all of your gadgets live throughout the game.

Whether you’re looking to record history or the next viral video you have to be packing a video recording device these days. The Flip MinoHD is hands down the new flagship model in the Flip line.  It’s packing double the memory (8 GB or 120 min), a larger screen and cooler design than its predecessor.  This awesome little device is small enough to toss in your pocket on the way to the game, and it’s powerful enough to capture that bottom of the 9th inning action from your second level club seats.Flip HD

How do you set yourself apart from the thousands of hats and jerseys in the stands? Well you’re gonna have to drop the $$$$$ on some accessories. Like this vintage 1948 Babe Ruth wristwatch (valued around $1500) Babe Ruth 1948 wristwatch or this jersey, the earliest known autographed Mickey Mantle game jersey circa 1952.mickey mantle jersey

Want to catch all the replay action?  Of course you do!  Who doesn’t?  The only reason NOT to go to the game is to be able to watch the replays on TV.  DirecTV, in their continuing quest of sports coverage domination has pumped out this sweet gadget for any die hard fan, the briefcase satellite TV. directv satellite briefcase

Want to bring a glove to catch fly balls but don’t want to look like that douche-tard still living out his H.S. glory days? The Rawlings Primo, made of the fine Italian leather retailing for $450 will make the point for you. Rawlings Primo Glove


And last but not least…what self-respecting fan of the Fall Classic isn’t rocking a Fan Can Hand to keep their beer insulated and hand warm in those brisk October nights? fan can hand
