Los Angeles — Here comes Santa Claus … right down Santa Claus Lane. Whistle. Foul. Charging.

Listen, you’ll be doing a lot of charging yourself if you opt for some of these high-end gifts for the sports fans in your life. On the other hand, Santa’s bag also includes some novelty gifts and inexpensive work-arounds as well.

Remember, to sports fans, “Christmas” is a verb:

The Ultimate Fan Cave

$5,000-$10,000

Once, these male retreats were dubbed “man caves.” Emblazoned with logos and sports-themed decor, they are now referred to as fan caves. “Guys are really simple creatures,” says Mike Yost of the Official Man Cave Site. “It really doesn’t take much to make us happy.” Well, aside from the surround-sound system, the latest game consoles, etc. To save money, Yost urges fan-cave rookies to turn to Craigslist and eBay for furniture and decor and save the big money on electronics. For ideas, see www.ManCaveSite.org.

Or Just the Ultimate Chair

From about $1,495

A subwoofer in the seat, as well as speakers in the arms and headrest, means you don’t just see the action, you feel it. An electronic tuning fork adds to the thrills. HiQ Entertainment, (828) 773-0011, www.hiqentertainment.com.

Or a Place for Your Couch Potato

From $950

Some furniture just speaks for itself. These are custom made, so they take up to four weeks to complete. Team insignias can be included too. mastupholstering.com.
