Daddy Daughter Dance 2016

The daddy daughter dance. 

A room full of dads

in ill-fitting suits

and neck tattoos. 

Receding hairlines,

mohawks,

rat tails

and big, gnarly beards.

(And the one guy with those shoes with the individual toes.) 

Dancing, ever so awkwardly

to Taio Cruz

and Justin Bieber (but not the good Justin Bieber)

and doing the Electric Slide,

the Macarena,

and the Chicken Dance. 

(And then there's the one really good dancer who makes the rest of us look bad worse.)

And a room filled with

the daughters who love them. 

Best night of the year. Every year.
