MAN CAVE CONTNUED...<br />
decent media equipment at a fraction of the sticker price. Buyer<br />
beware: Pawn shops aren't exactly known for their honesty. You<br />
won't be able to return what you buy, but it is a potential, albeit<br />
risky, shot at getting a larger television for your man cave. Of<br />
course, you'll need cable or a satellite dish to access every channel<br />
and a DVD player including booming base speakers that turn up<br />
loud enough to drown out airplanes passing overhead.<br />
3. Buy furniture: Now that you have something to watch, you'll need<br />
something to sit on, preferably a huge couch or recliner. If you intend<br />
to keep this man cave to yourself and eschew all visitors, go with the<br />
recliner. However, if you're the social type, get a nice big couch that can<br />
accommodate all of your friends. Nothing is worse than returning from<br />
the bathroom only to discover someone has stolen your seat.<br />
around<br />
the<br />
house<br />
4. Snaz up the place. You'll want to do something with the flooring and walls. Remember, once you spill beer<br />
on carpeting, that bar smell is there for good. If going on the cheap is your objective, leave what's there and<br />
spend your money elsewhere. You'll have to cover those nasty walls with something and nothing is more<br />
impressive than a Fathead. Fathead.com has fan-favorite wall graphics of sports and entertainment stars that<br />
stick to your wall and transform your man cave into a suite at the stadium. Posters.com also has a wide selection<br />
of posters to fulfill your man cave needs.<br />
5. Decorate: To be truly comfortable in your man cave, you need to feel like you're in your element. One easy<br />
way to do that is to get all of your sporting equipment out of the attic and bring it to the man cave. That way<br />
you and your friends can play a little indoor pickup game during commercials. Any sports memorabilia works.<br />
6. Lock the door. <strong>The</strong> ultimate man cave is self-contained. You should keep a fridge full of two cases of beer<br />
within reaching distance. A bathroom isn't a bad idea either. To truly make your man cave your own, it's never<br />
a bad idea to put a lock on the door. You don't need the kids barging in while you and the boys are doing keg<br />
stands during half time.<br />
More than anything, the man cave is a sanctuary to let men return to their roots and let it all hang out without<br />
fear of reprisal. Whether you're a millionaire or just moved into an apartment, the man cave principle is the<br />
same. You can spend thousands on a man cave or a few hundred dollars, but the knowledge of knowing this is<br />
your territory is priceless.•<br />
