TIL that in 1976, promoter Sid Bernstein took out an ad in the New York Times offering The Beatles $230 million to reform for a one-time-only charity concert. Although they refused, Paul McCartney later admitted that they had considered it. ultimateclassicrock.com/b…

TIL Beatles manager Brian Epstein was so concerned that the band was not popular enough to sell out Shea Stadium that promoter Sid Bernstein had to offer him $10 per every empty seat to secure the performance. nydailynews.com/entertain…

Today, we lost the legend known as Sid Bernstein (he brought the Beatles to America). Here's a video I made years ago when my company threw an event honoring him and I got to meet him. In Memoriam note I wrote included in text/comments.

The world lost a legend this morning, Sid Bernstein. For those who may not know the name, you may have heard of a group of four who called themselves the Beatles. Or perhaps you've heard of the Rolling Stones, the Kinks and the Moody Blues. This man was the one who brought them overseas to America and changed the way the world would listen to music. Sid lit a candle for John Lennon and played his Imagine LP on his record player in a dark room when he heard about the shooting at the Dakota, a story I can never forget hearing told by no other than himself when I had the great pleasure of meeting him the few times I did.

Sid, this candle is for you now.

Your 95 years of life have changed the lives of billions and words cannot describe the gratitude I and fellow musicophiles feel for keeping our best interest at heart. Send John and George our regards, I'm happy you're getting the reunion you always wanted. We love you.

EDIT: Imgur here's a photo of me presenting him an award at the event the video was created for.

Dropped my best ever dad joke & no one was around to hear it

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies πŸ˜‚

These aren't dad jokes...

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

I did it, I finally did it. After 4 years and 92 days I went from being a father, to a dad.

This morning, my 4 year old daughter.

Daughter: I'm hungry

Me: nerves building, smile widening

Me: Hi hungry, I'm dad.

She had no idea what was going on but I finally did it.

Thank you all for listening.

Possibly the greatest Snap Reaction dad joke I've ever told (it even got me a POWERFUL groan and vehement FU from my wife)

Me grabbing a soda from my (what I thought was) half full 12pk...

Notices there's only 2;

Me: "Awe man... This is a damn bird box!" Her: "What the hell does that mean?!" Me: (Pulls both cans out & shows them to her) "It's only got Toucans."

I'm not ashamed to admit the look on her face was glorious.
