The following is how Wikipedia describes the history of Festivus....

The holiday, as portrayed in the Seinfeld episode and now celebrated by many, includes practices such as the "Airing of Grievances," which occurs during the Festivus meal and in which each person tells everyone else all the ways they have disappointed him or her over the past year. After the meal the "Feats of Strength" are performed, involving wrestling the head of the household to the floor, with the holiday ending only if the head of the household is actually pinned.

The original holiday featured more peculiar practices, as detailed in the younger Daniel O'Keefe's book The Real Festivus. The book provides a first-person account of an early version of the Festivus holiday as celebrated by the O'Keefe family, and how O'Keefe amended or replaced details of his father's invention to create the Seinfeld episode.

The following are ten of the most unique gift ideas for Festivus 2010....

#1 Star Wars® Imperial AT-AT All Terrain Armored Transport Vehicle - If your little boy is into Star Wars, then this is the gift.  I know that if I had received this as a child I would have been crying tears of joy.  This AT-AT is just way, way, way too cool.

#2 Star Wars Clone Wars Ultimate Blaster- Oh how I wish they had these when my brother and I were kids!  What little Star Wars fans would not want to run around the house shooting Star Wars blasters at each other?  These are very, very cool and they will provide hours upon hours of fun and laughter.

#5 Broken (Star Wars: Legacy, Vol. 1) (v. 1) - Do you want to know what happens to the Star Wars Universe after Luke, Leia and Han Solo are all gone?  That is what the "Star Wars:Legacy" comic series reveals.  This is the best graphic novel series that I have ever read.  Trust me, if you are a Star Wars fan, you have got to get these graphic novels.

#8 Star Wars: The Complete Visual Dictionary - The Ultimate Guide to Characters and Creatures from the Entire Star Wars Saga- Do you know a Star Wars fan who thinks that he or she knows everything that there is to know about Star Wars?  If so, you might want to grab this "dictionary" which is actually more like an encyclopedia.  It contains so much information that it is absolutely mind blowing.

#9 Revell Star Wars - X-Wing fighter- What little Star Wars fan would not want an X-Wing?  I sure wish I had been given one of these when I was a little boy.  If you know a kid who collects Star Wars toys, then this is a gift that would bring huge squeals of joy.

#10 Star Wars Clone Wars Ultimate Light Saber- Is there any Star Wars fan out there that would not love to own a lightsaber?  In the past, toy lightsabers were cheap plastic imitations, but now Hasbro has released what they are calling the "Ultimate Lightsaber".  This is one gift that would blow just about any Star Wars fan away.
