What happened to June?!

Father's Day is nearly upon us, so... time for a little game: How many of these famous fathers can you identify? (Answers below.)

Proceeding left to right down the rows:

  1. Mufasa: The brave and inspiring father of Samba from the Lion King... a big favorite in our house.
  2. Darth Vader: "His name is, literally, 'dark father.'" While not a personal favorite, Darth is a certifiably famous father. And Star Wars is, of course, another huge favorite in our family.
  3. God: The heavenly father as depicted by Michelangelo... who is probably also known as the father of something.
  4. George Washington: The father of our country! Hope you didn't miss that one!
  5. Mike Brady: The ultimate TV dad... the father of the Brady Bunch.
  6. Father Christmas: Doesn't he look a little sinister in this drawing?
  7. Vito Corleone: OK, so... technically, a GODfather, but still... pretty famous.
  8. Chuck Berry: The Father of Rock and Roll, of course.
  9. Patrick McGuire: Famous around here as the father of all the little wine children in barrels and bottles around the winery. And, of course, the father of Cassidy and Rob... the not-so-little human children around the winery.
