June 5, 2017

This is a real Craigslist ad posted in Spokane, Washington, by a group of guys in their early 20s requesting the services of an experienced "BBQ Dad."

NEEDED: Generic Father for Backyard BBQ

To interested individuals,
We will be throwing a backyard BBQ on June 17th to celebrate beer and each other. We range in age from 21-26, and while most of us know how to operate a grill, none of us are prepared to fill the role of "BBQ Dad" That being said, we are in need of a generic father figure from 4PM to about 8PM (though you may stay the full duration of the party). Duties include:

- Grilling hamburgers and hotdogs (whilst drinking beer)

- Bringing your own grill (though this is subject to change. We will provide all of the meat)

- Refer to all attendees as "Big Guy', "Chief", "Sport", "Champ" etc. (whilst drinking beer)

- Talk about dad things, like lawnmowers, building your own deck, Jimmy Buffet, etc. Funny anecdotes are highly encouraged. All whilst drinking beer.

Desired experience:

- A minimum of 18 years experience as a father

- A minimum of 10 years grilling experience

- An appreciation of a nice, cold beer on a hot summer day

We can't pay you in money, BUT we can give you all the food and cold beer your heart desires. Grill for a few hours, then sit back and crack open a few cold ones with the boys.

THIS IS A REAL AD. Do not hesitate to call if you are interested. Preference will be given to applicants named Bill, Randy, or Dave.
