Dad's day is on it's way. This Saturday, thousands of dads from around the country will be stepping foot into Norman, Oklahoma. Many of them for the first time. The question is, what are you going to do with your dad? Here are all of the coolest places to take your dad this weekend, no matter what they like to do.

1. The Warren Theatre

Take them to the Warren Theatre in Moore, OK. See a movie in the Balcony theatre or the Director's Suite. Make sure they try the after movie mints they give you when you're leaving.

2. Hurts

You were always told your freshman year that these are the best donuts in Norman. Make sure your dad can try some too.

3. Classic 50's Drive in

Same deal with Hurts. It's talked about all the time. Take them to go get a Sprittle.

4. Thunder Game

If he's going to be in town on Friday night, and he's a basketball fan, the Thunder are playing the LA Clippers.

5. Loot & XP

Loot & XP is a cafe where you can play all sorts of board games. From classics like The Game of Life or more detailed ones like Ticket to Ride. It's a really great place to sit and talk while being engaged in something fun.

6. Campus Tour

Sure you can go on one given by a tour guide, but then you wouldn't be able to show your dad all your favorite spots. You can also take him to the two museums on campus for an added bonus.

7. Downtown OKC

There are tons of things to do in Downtown OKC. Go visit the Myriad Gardens, visit some bars, take a water taxi ride, or just walk around playing Pokémon Go.

8. Tailgate

Visit your fraternity, sorority, or club's tailgate before the game so you can get full of that game day spirit.

9. Riverwind

Go try and win some gas money for his drive back home.

10. The Baylor Game

Enjoy a good ole OU football game and cheer us on as we beat Baylor this weekend.

Have a fun and safe Dad's day and Boomer Sooner!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
