Kyle Thoms is a new dad

In honor of Father’s Day, we asked a few CUAA employees to submit their favorite Dad Jokes.


When does a Dad Joke become a Dad Joke?

When it becomes a groan-up!

What better day to honor the joke genre made famous by the lovable men in our lives than Father’s Day? We’re talking Dad Jokes—those pun-tastic, slightly eye roll-worthy, accessible-to-the-masses little nuggets of humor.

There is an endless supply of Dad Jokes out there, but we wanted to hear from a few actual dads which ones they have on the ready to fill an awkward silence. Here’s what these CUAA fathers offered.
