Brainstorming Penn State-Themed Valentine’s Day Gifts For That Special Someone

Love is in the air, folks.
Picking out the perfect Valentine’s Day gift can be challenging — you want something that shows you care but also something that feels personal and not just like you grabbed whatever was on the shelf. No need to fret, we got you covered.
With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, we came up with some outside-of-the-box Penn State-themed gifts that’ll make your loved one’s heart skip a beat.
Chicken Basket
Nothing beats a classic Beaver Stadium chicken basket on gameday. Rather than going to a fancy restaurant or making dinner, bring that student section energy to your lover’s steps by feeding them chicken tenders and fries.
Nittany Lion Ears
Whether they wear them to show off their Penn State pride or for role play, this is the purrrfect gift for your lover. You can find them downtown at McLanahan’s, Family Clothesline, or the Student Bookstore.
White Loop Candlelit Picnic
It’s pretty simple. Pack up a picnic basket, stock it up with fruit and charcuterie board staples, and do a loop or two around campus on the Whoop. Did someone say dinner and view?
Champs Pink Dirty Sprite Bucket
Why waste money on fancy wine when you get your shawty a massive bucket filled with Champs Downtown’s signature dirty Sprite? Nothing says “I love you” more than a copious amount of alcohol.
LionCash
If you’re out of luck and have no ideas but have too much LionCash, transfer some LionCash into your honey’s account. Sure, you might need it for your laundry, but it’s the thought that counts right?
Spin Bike Ride
“Grab a Spin bike, get there fast!”
If you value quality time and experiences over gifts, just hop on two Spin bikes and take a romantic, scenic ride around campus.
Arboretum Flower Bouquet
For this gift idea, all you have to do is illegally hand-pick a couple dozen flowers from the Arboretum and arrange them into a beautiful bouquet. How romantic!
This gift will leave your lover singing, “Mama, I’m in love with a criminal.”
McLanahan’s Meatball Sub
Show your loved one some love by getting them the $5 McLanahan’s meatball Monday deal. It’s seriously the best deal in Happy Valley. One way or another your lover will have balls in their mouth this Valentine’s Day.
Barbershop Quartet
Okay, this one is serious. The day before and of Valentine’s Day, the Nittany Knights barbershop chorus is offering singing Valentines to send to your partner.
The quartet is sure to have your date swooning by the end of their performance. Let’s just hope they don’t fall in love with one of the quartet members, instead.
