Man Gains International Fame For Posting Hilarious Dad Jokes On Roadside Sign

Everyone loves dad jokes, right? I can see the dads nodding in agreement, and literally everyone else cringing. One Colorado man has turned dad jokes into an art form, going viral for his efforts.

Meet Vince Rozmiarek.

You can just tell from this horse whispering photo that he appreciates any joke that would cause his kids' eyes to roll back into their heads. He isn't just an enthusiast of the humble dad joke — he's also a fine craftsman.

He posts updates on his community's sign.

Did I say "updates"? I actually meant "dad jokes". Rozmiarek lives in the small community of Indian Hills, Colorado. There's a community sign for updates, but since there isn't much happening, the sign has become the source of some legendary dad jokes.

Har har har.

Whether you love or hate dad jokes, you've gotta admit that these are original. The sign is popular enough that it has its own Facebook page with more than 85,000 followers.

He's been updating the sign for six years.

“Obviously, I’m a man with time on my hands,” he told The Washington Post. “My three kids are all grown, and people could use something to smile about. So, why not, I thought.”

Where does he come up with this stuff?

Rozmiarek says he has a bunch of old joke books from back in the day, full of puns, plays on words and corny jokes. Then, with the help of the internet, he tweaks and updates them, then posts them for all to see.

No pun has appeared twice.

He says some puns are borrowed from elsewhere, but he never uses one that someone else has taken credit for. “I'm looking at puns now for at least an hour a day,” he said.

It's become a tourist attraction.

Indian Hills is located in a beautiful part of the country, but it's hardly a tourist mecca. In recent years, though, visitors have sought out Indian Hills just to check out the sign.

They're pretty great.

Dad jokes are characterized by being clean, and usually a little bit obvious or on-the-nose. Rozmiarek's jokes are definitely clean, but the punchlines are generally original and sometimes even unexpected.

He got his start with a little legal run-in.

He says a neighboring community was notorious for speed traps, so he put up a sign saying that the community had annexed Indian Hills. He soon got a call from police.

Six years in, he's going strong.
