Buy a horse with Honors points..
I did a search for "quarter horse" on the HHonors board and am shocked I didn't see details about what I believe is a great value for your HHonors points.
For only 500 credit card applications (with the appropriate nightly stays) you can have your very own American Quarter Horse...
American Quarter Horse- 79587
Starting At 2,500,000 Hilton HHonors Points
Shipping and Handling included --> How nice of them!

Anyone have a better (or more creative) use of points?

I'm no comedian, so I'll probably mess up this opportunity, but here we go anyway...

Not a good deal to use points for this one. Right now with the price of feed up due to the price of fuel you can get one for free - $2500. Sad times in the horse business. A lot of nice kids horses out there getting turned into horsemeat. We're not home enough to have horses but if we were I'd sure have a couple. My parents got me a pony at 6 and it was my passion for the next 25 years. It was a great motivator for me to get good grades and kept me too busy to get in (much) trouble.

In mid-Michigan you can find some great deals on horses... $2500 for a AQH colt/foal/pony, and I was not even really looking for a deal.
Unless (Even if) the lines come from a Triple Crown winner, I think the points are a wee bit much.
But definately a unique way to use your points.
