Spokane, Wash. â Father's Day was started a century ago because inventor Sonora Smart Dodd was upset by widespread mocking of fathers in popular culture as lazy, sleazy and drunk.
After much hard work, Father's Day was first celebrated in 1910. Mrs. Dodds wanted the date of the holiday to be on her father's birthday, which was the fifth of June. But the events had to be moved to the nineteenth of June so there would be enough time to prepare.
