Ah, Father's Day!

It's the one day of the year when dads everywhere get the royal treatment they deserve (or at least a new set of golf clubs). But have you ever wondered how this day of dad devotion got started? Well, grab your coffee and buckle up because we're about to take a joyride through the history of Father's Day, with a few pit stops for some dad-worthy humor along the way, courtesy of your friends here at Oviedo Auto Group.

The Origin Story: Believe it or not, Father's Day has a pretty interesting origin story. It all started in 1910 when a young woman named Sonora Smart Dodd wanted to honor her dear old dad, William Jackson Smart, a Civil War veteran and single parent who raised six kids alone. So, she proposed a day to celebrate fathers, just like we honor mothers on Mother's Day. And thus, Father's Day was born!

Now, fast forward to today, and Father's Day has become a global phenomenon, celebrated in over 111 countries worldwide. And here at Oviedo Auto Group, we're all about celebrating dads in style, whether it's with a sleek new ride or a good old-fashioned dad joke.

What It's All About: Father's Day is more than just a day to shower Dad with ties and tools (although those are always appreciated). It's a day to honor the men who have shaped our lives, from teaching us how to ride a bike to sharing their timeless wisdom (and terrible puns).

The Dad Jokes: Ah, dad jokes – the cornerstone of any Father's Day celebration. Whether it's a cringe-worthy pun or a groan-inducing one-liner, dads everywhere are notorious for their unparalleled ability to make us laugh (or at least roll our eyes). So in honor of Father's Day, here are a few of our favorite dad jokes, guaranteed to make you chuckle (or at least sigh in exasperation):

  • Why don't skeletons fight each other?          - They don't have the guts.
  • What do you call fake spaghetti?          - An impasta.
  • I used to play piano by ear, but now I use my hands.
  • Why did the golfer bring two pairs of pants?          - In case he got a hole-in-one.


So, there you have it – the history of Father's Day, brought to you by Oviedo Auto Group. Whether you're celebrating with a new car or truck or a classic dad joke, we hope you take some time to honor the dads in your life and show them just how much they mean to you.

At Oviedo Auto Group, we believe that being a dad is a lot like driving a car – it's all about navigating life's twists and turns with style and grace (and maybe a few dad jokes too). So whether your dad is a classic car kind of guy or prefers to kick it in gear with a rugged truck, we've got the perfect ride to suit his style.
