I don't think I've seen a thread here like this, but for Father's Day give us some of your favorite memories you had with your dad. One of mine was when I paid for my dad and I to go up to Lake Erie and hit a walleye charter. I was trying everything to catch as many as I could. My dad would fall asleep about every 20 minutes, he would jerk himself awake and he would jerk his fishing pole up so hard it would smack the top of the roof on the boat. Each time he would wake up, he would real his line in and 50% of the time he had a fish on the line. One time his pole was bent pretty significantly, so I woke him up, he reeled in a 25 inch 6.5lb walleye LOL, it was hilarious.

Another one of mine, we had a hobby farm, horses, pigs, sheep, chickens, turkeys. I was about 10 years old, I went to get the chicken eggs, it was late, probably 9pm so it was dark. I heard a hissing as soon as I came in the coop. I ran to get my dad, he grabbed his 12gauge and a flashlight. We got back to the coop, he told me to go grab a pitchfork, do I did. This coon wouldn't leave the coop, it ran up into the rafters, so my dad skewered it with the pitchfork and pinned it to the wall. He tells me to come over and hold it as tight as I can against the wall "and" hold the flashlight. So I did, 30 seconds later, he blasted 3 holes through the coon. I ended up rupturing my ear drum completely on one side lol, good times.
