Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Oh, hey there. Just doing some quick math here. Be right with you... let's see, hold the one, carry the two... Ahem, okay, so if you were as old as the Blink dudes were when Dookie -- er, Dude Ranch, sorry! -- dropped, the big 40 is staring you down, which means you're probably a dad. A cool dad, one who's taking junior to see Blink this weekend. *Sigh* Our dad was never that cool. What's that? Ah, yes, you have no idea what the hell we're talking about with all this cool dad business? Eh. Guess it's a good thing we put together this handy illustration for you then, so you can spot the Blink-182 Cool Dad this weekend at KTCL's Big Gig, eh?

Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
