One of the most interesting and recently popular products at Big T Sports is an 8 foot braided leather bullwhip. For any true Indiana Jones fan, this is a must-have item, especially with the new Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull movie coming out. The whip produces a good, loud crack. The handle is very sturdy, and the whip itself is lightweight. The single loop to slide your hand through will keep the whip anchored at your hand too as you snap it. With it's decent price, the whip makes for a good gag gift or a nice addition to any Halloween costume or themed party.

Zippo Manufacturing Company was founded in 1932 by George G. Blaisdell in Bradford, Pennsylvania and 75 years and over 400 million lighters later, Zippo has become a nationwide phenomenon. The first Zippo was modeled after an Austrian lighter that caught Blaisdell's attention and he adopted the name from the word zipper, simply because he liked the sound. The Zippo received its U.S. Patent in 1936 which guaranteed the exclusive design and features that Zippo is known for. The outside case of the Zippo has undergone some design changes to meet personal styling preferences; however the internal working has remained intact from the beginning. Several features make Zippo unique in the world of lighters and give Zippo their reputation for quality, reliability, and usefulness.

If a Zippo ever is to break, regardless of age or number of owners, Zippo will repair or replace the unit free of charge.
Zippo lighter are dubbed the "windproof" lighter because of their ability to stay lit even in the harshest weather conditions. Zippo attributes this to the manufacturing design of the windscreen and the fact the lighter constantly receives fuel through the wick. Zippo lighters are difficult to extinguish by blowing out the flame, and the top must be closed to properly extinguish.
The Zippo's reliability and durability made them extremely popular during World War II and for the duration of the war, Zippo exclusively manufactured their products for the military. After the war the Zippo's legend was proven and America took to the lighter that would define quality. Zippos have become celebrated in movies, television, art, songs, and even in literature.
