## The story

Suddenly, grandpa's closet was the coolest store in town. Bow ties came back in tiny polka dots, plaid and even little mustache prints, and they went with suspenders, rolled jeans and a cardigan. Kids learned to tie them from video tutorials and failed spectacularly, so most of them were secretly clip-ons. Grandpas felt very proud.

## Fun fact

Grandpas who were asked to teach bow tie knotting reported the most quality family time in decades.
