Here's a friendly reminder that Father's Day is this weekend. Yup, it's this Sunday.
Put some effort into it this year by skipping the Dillard's tie section — unless you're going to Pinnacle Peak, then get him that tie. So we made a list of things to get your dad, where to get some good eats and some ideas for activities.
If you're willing to brave the heat, Old Tucson is offering free admission to dads and boys all weekend from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Little Anthony's is having its night car show from 6-9 p.m. on Saturday, June 17.
Happy Father's Day, dads!
