1995 1995 Army-Navy Game
The Drive
Army vs Navy
14 - 13
2 December, 1995
Army had a 5 year win streak against Navy from 1992 - 1996, and each game was won by no more than 4 points. In the 1995 matchup, Army was trailing by 6 points late in the 4th quarter but managed a 99 yard touchdown drive for the win. The drive was kept alive by a legendary 28 yard pass from Ronnie McAda to John Graves on a 4th and 24h.
1985 Peach Bowl
Back-to-Back Bowls
Army vs Illinois
31 - 29
31 December, 1985
After winning the Cherry Bowl in 1984, Army was looking to beat another conference team in the '85 Peach Bowl. Illinois kept the game close, and briefly took the lead in the 3rd quarter, putting Army down by 2. Army had an answer for that, with Clarence Jones tossing a 26 yard completion to Scott Spellmon. Army never trailed after that and achieved back-to-back bowl wins.
1945 Army-Navy Game
Game of the Century
Army vs Navy
32 - 13
1 December, 1945
Considered one of the best games of the 20th century, #1 ranked Army and #2 ranked Navy faced off for the 1945 championship game. Army took a 13 point first half lead and then slammed Navy in the first minute of the second half with a 46 yard interception from Doc Blanchard. Blanchard had three touchdowns and Glenn Davis contributed another two for the win. The victory gave Army back-to-back championships, and they would win their third in a row the following year.
2010 Armed Forces Bowl
The fumble recovery
Army vs SMU
16 - 14
30 December, 2010
Making their first bowl appearance in 14 seasons, Army was more than ready for the SMU team. Army lept out to a 16 - 0 lead in the second and held on a late rally by SMU for the win. The first touchdown of the game came on a dramatic 55 yard fumble recovery by Josh McNary.
Common questions
Are these a good gift for an Army fan?▾
Yes. This coaster set is made for an Army fan who really knows and loves the team. They’ll recognize moments like The Drive and Back-to-Back Bowls, and each coaster gives them another piece of Army history to talk about. It’s more than a logo on a coaster — it’s a way to relive the plays and memories that made them a fan. It’s especially suited to a dad, husband, friend, or hard-to-shop-for Army fan who already owns the usual team gear.
Is this a good Christmas gift for an Army fan?▾
Yes. These coasters make a unique Christmas gift for Army fans, especially someone who already has plenty of jerseys, hats, and traditional team gear. Each coaster brings back a memorable moment from Army history, making the set both useful and personal to someone who really follows the team. Our coaster sets are especially popular as Christmas gifts, with more than 16,000 five-star reviews across Shopify and Etsy.
One customer wrote: “The quality is insane, perfectly matched description. Bought for my dad for Christmas and as a man that is incredibly hard to buy for he loved them and are a great convo starter with his friends, Great gift would buy from this seller again.” — Etsy Customer, January 11, 2023
What makes these different from traditional sports merchandise?▾
These coasters focus on memorable plays rather than a team logo. Each one features an original Playbook diagram of a real Army play, drawn to show how the moment unfolded. Playbook Products is not affiliated with or endorsed by Army or the NCAA.
How long do Army coaster orders take to ship?▾
Most Army coaster orders are processed within 1–2 business days, then typically arrive 2–4 business days after they ship (U.S.). During busy holiday periods, processing can take longer. A delivery date shown on this page is an estimate.
What if a coaster arrives cracked or damaged?▾
Send us a photo of the damaged coaster within 14 days of delivery and we'll send a replacement. Please hold onto the damaged coaster until we let you know otherwise.
Are these coaster designs AI-generated?▾
No. I've spent hundreds of hours reviewing footage of these plays and drawing them up as they happened. The finished drawings are laser-etched onto the coasters using our own machines. The artwork is not generated by AI. I appreciate you supporting a small business.
