Father’s Day is a day to celebrate our dads and thank them for all they do, dad-jokes and all. Many people assume that a month after Mother’s Day someone thought “Hey wait a minute…” and that’s how Father’s Day came to be. Surprisingly, this is not far from the truth. Here are some fun facts on Father's Day!

  • 2.) Each year on Father’s Day around 83 million cards are sent.
