Survivor Dad

After being dropped in the middle of a deserted island, this dad was left with nothing but a spearhead, his wits and a pair of blue hotpants. Needless to say, this dad triumphed over peril by fighting a thousand jungle beasts, drinking condensation off of his tiny waterproof trunks and safely swimming back to a mainland, all thanks to a pair of very little shorts!

Thanks to Bryan Scary for this picture of Dr. Scary! Hear Bryan sing songs about his dad:

Ahhhh.. BARRACUDA Dad

WOW- look at that dad's...fish! This dad looks like a young, undercover Steve Guttenberg in total masculine-hunter-and-gatherer mode! Those shorts are at an amazing height. He's even beat out Guttenberg! (see below)

Thanks to Emily for this amazing dad pic. Check out her blog at nutmegpolymath.wordpress.com

Just another dad at the beach...

Oh, looky what we have here! Those trunks are pretty high up there, dad.... Oh WAIT a second! Look at Junior over there! I think he has got dad beat on the indecent-exposure-at-the-beach scale. Hmmm... has anyone started a "Babys in Speedos" blog yet? Too creepy? NSFW??

Car Wash Dad

This dad and kid duo are looking great in their matching red bottoms, but at 50 cents a car wash, they'll be hosing down a lot of Hondas before Daniela can pay her way through school.

When plan A failed, she later proudly took over the family business and now owns a chain of car wash stores in Queens.

The Original Brooklyn Dad

Pictured here, in South Carolina, Jess's Brooklyn dad is slightly out of his element, yet still appears very comfortable, thanks to his sweatpant short shorts.

Undercover Dad

Despite the beard and sunglasses, this dad is not leaving much to the imagination. Even at a young age, baby Geoff seems completely aware of the atrocity dad is committing.
Thanks Julie for sending us this mysterious dad.

Vacation T-Shirt Dad

One of my personal favorite looks pictured here:

I don't think anyone will be losing this dad in the Bermuda Triangle.
Thanks Angela for unearthing this fantastic pic of your boyfriend's dad!

Let's see what's going on at the Ho-down!!

1981: Oh look, it is party dad at the height of his success.

He is sporting plenty of cowbell to go around, and also has five kids - wow!

*Thanks to Brian from KFDI for submitting this inspirational dad!

Noah & his Dad: Still Skimpy After All These Years

This pic of this dad was taken in 1988, at the height of the dads-in-short-shorts phenomena. HE NAILED IT- as eloquently put by Noah's T-shirt. 20 years later......

Above picture is from 2009- Almost nothing has changed! This dad is still rocking the above the knees. ALSO, please note: like father, like son. Great job, you guys- amazing family effort!

XXX-mas Dad

First of all we would like to mention that even though this dad looks looks exactly like the dad below, HE IS A TOTALLY DIFFERENT DAD!!!! I know! We can't believe it either. It might be Christmas in this pic, but this dad looks HOT HOT HOT.

Cait's dad

This is Cait's dad pictured here in what she described as a "lava tube." I am not sure what that is, but it sounds just as sexy as those bun-huggers!

Pete's dad

Ok so the shorts could be a little shorter here... but look at how happy he is

Johnna's Dad

Rolex should hire this dad.

Beast's Dad

How fitting is it that the Beast's dad is pictured here in the wilderness? Coincidence? NO WAY.

Beardo Dad

It is no wonder the child of this dad now has this.


PS- This is what Santa Claus looks like on summer vacation.

Nessy's Dad

Inappropriate dad!

Noodle's Dad

Thanks Noodle!

The dad who started it all

Mystery dad!
