Still, there is a whole section on GameTime’s FAQ page that explains how to transfer tickets as a gift, or just to share with the person you’re attending the game with.
FuboTV for the Sports Fan in Your Life
FuboTV prides itself as the streaming service for sports fans, and indeed FuboTV offers the most options for sports fans of any streaming service.
Fans can watch any of the ESPN networks as well as FOX Sports 1 and 2, plus they don’t have to miss out on their own local networks due to Fubo’s regional sports networks. What’s best is there’s no equipment to rent or buy, and users can watch programming on the Fubo app anywhere.
How to Gift a Fubo TV Subscription
The best way to gift a FuboTV subscription is to purchase a gift card, since FuboTV does not offer gifting for its service. Or you could sign up for the service in the name of the person who you’re gifting it.
Sirius XM As a Holiday Gift
If you’re a sports fan without SiriusXM, you’re doing it wrong. The satellite radio company offers comprehensive sports and fantasy analysis 24 hours per day and broadcasts every pro sporting event in North America and every Power 5 college football and basketball game too.

Prime Video
If you’re an NFL fan you need to have a Prime Video subscription or else you’re missing at least one NFL game per week. If you know the sports fan in your life is missing out, a standalone Prime Video account
Plus, Prime has been producing original sports content such as “Coach Prime” about Deion Sanders’ final season at Jackson State and his ascent to the head-coaching role at Colorado.
FOCO For Unique Sports Gifts

What’s best is BetMGM offers a helpful map of locations where gift cards can be purchased locally, since many convenience stores offer sportsbook gift cards.
Thule Roof Racks for Outdoorsy Types
If you’re like me, you like to get out and explore nature when the weather is good. The best way to keep all of your outdoor gear organized is with a Thule-brand roof rack that is easily affixed to your car’s roof.
These can be on the pricier side, but they are easily assembled and storable when not in use, and all belongings are secured with a lock and key. Plus, you can use them to secure other belongings aside from outdoor gear, year-round.
Fabletics Activewear
If you’re a gym rat, or just want to be comfortable while watching the games, Fabletics is the perfect option for sports fans.
Fabletics has high-quality and fashionable activewear for men and women. The clothing is perfect for fans to wear while running, to the gym, or even to a friend’s house for a game-day gathering.
