When Does A Joke Become A Dad Joke?

When Does A Joke Become A Dad Joke?

June 15, 2017 (June 14, 2024) // Riot Fest

In honor of Father’s Day, we made you a list of horrible/wonderful groan worthy dad jokes. But that brings up the question, when does a joke become a dad joke? When the punchline becomes apparent.

And don’t forget, to disappoint your dad again by getting him Riot Fest tickets for Father’s Day.
