OH MAN, somebody is getting in trouble for sending this one in! I suspect the culprit is either the photographer or the one hiding behind the cute little girl. I love the man leaning to make sure he gets in the picture.
And, amazingly, it is the little girl with the smallest head of all who is blocking someone else’s face! (although grandpa is straining a little to see the camera…)
I kid you not…I just laughed sooo hard at that comment that I need to stop looking at this website while at work. People are looking at me like I am high on something. I wouldn’t be suprised if I have to take a random drug test later because of this. BEST. COMMENT. EVERRRRR!!!!
Ya know, with a fro’ like that it makes one wonder how often you get caught and entangled in s**t. Just wondering. Seems like you would REALLY have to pay attention to where you are going at all times.
aww….love this pic! this easily could have been my family in the 70’s only white…and fro guy would’ve been my uncle with braces, and a david cassidy fly away shag hair do!

FIERCE! the socks…the pose…the sideways glance…the peekaboo tidy whities…the moustache…and of course, the fro!
I believe they’re called TIGHTEY whities… nothing tidy about them
FIERCE! You nailed it LK, say no more.
Now he’s stylin!
You did indeed nail it, LK.
Early 70’s I believe…just stick a “pick” in the back of that fro and you had an automatic arrest….ahhhhh those weren’t the days
Ahahahaha! Nice. You summed it all up right there. Now if that isn’t the truth.
Woah, thats a lot of leg.
Nothin’ from nothin’ leaves nothin’
You gotta have somethin’ if you wanna be with me…
LOL
Great – that song will be in my head for a month!
HOLY SOCKS! It’s Billy Preston, maybe Sly Stone or possibly a combination of both.
OH MAN, somebody is getting in trouble for sending this one in! I suspect the culprit is either the photographer or the one hiding behind the cute little girl. I love the man leaning to make sure he gets in the picture.
Me, too-that’s the best part! “Can’t see around your ‘fro, son!”
Yes! the Peepin’ Papa is my favorite part of the picture too. He and the lady next to him (Mama, I presume?) look really adorable next to each other.
I love how the little girl on the left is DYING to get her hands in his hair!
LOL! She does looked pretty geeked up about the fro. I bet no one could tell bruh he didn’t have it going on….
DY-NO-MITE!!!!! =D
hahahahaha
Whoa, nice block there at center!
*zing!* love it!
Rock those socks! All the guys tried to look like the pro basketball players in those things. Ah, memories.
I like how granddad has to peer around the ‘fro to be in the picture. Dude does look like he’s got a wicked jumpshot, though. It’s the socks.
“He’s stands at 6′1…6′5 with the ‘fro.”
gotta love a Fletch quote!!
love how the grandpa behind the fro has moved his head to the side so it’s not blocking his face!
I myself am a big fan of the sliver of tighty-whitey that he’s rockin’…
Absolutely….all I can think is HAWT!
Mmm-mmm! Lets say it again, “that’s a lot of leg!”
And, amazingly, it is the little girl with the smallest head of all who is blocking someone else’s face! (although grandpa is straining a little to see the camera…)
It was apparently commonplace in 1984 for Dr. J to walk right off the court and into the living room of an unsuspecting family.
that was WAY before 1984
Point well taken. I was more going for when Dr. J was big.
he was big, and his hair was bigger…
hahahaha good one!
Why am I so concerned that right after this was taken Granny pulled a Britney Spears?
Get out of my head!
You mean when Britt shaved her head? or …OH…OH, no you didn’t… get out of my head, too.
wow. love the peek at his tighties too!
I don’t know which ‘do is more fantastic – the Fro, or Hairspray Granny in the previous picture. I think Granny’s ‘do beats Fro-boy by a hair.
Maybe-but I think they share the same hairstylist.
he is THE MAN!!!
You mess with the ‘fro, you gots to go.
LOL!!
This is perhaps my favorite family photo of all time. This family has it going on!
Fo schizzle, ‘fro schnizzle.
HEY, HEY, HEY. Heyba manba!
FROtoshopped.
A++.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA….FREAKIN AWESOME
Best. Comment. Ever.
Frotastic comment!
You kill me.
I kid you not…I just laughed sooo hard at that comment that I need to stop looking at this website while at work. People are looking at me like I am high on something. I wouldn’t be suprised if I have to take a random drug test later because of this. BEST. COMMENT. EVERRRRR!!!!
Ha hahahaha ha ha ha!!! I snorted a little when i laughed at that!!! BEST comment EVVVVEEERRR!!!
Its the simple comments that have the most punch.
Fo’ schizzle, ‘fro schnizzle.
I love how the lady in the back is hiding behind that little girl.
In a related story, Harlem is missing one Globetrotter.
good one!!! =D
Ain’t we lucky we got ‘em? Good tiiiiiiiiimes!!! Yea-a-a-h…!
I love peek-a-boo Grandpa! So cute!
The Harlem Globetrotters music popped into my head looking at this
I love how grandpa is cranning his neck around the afro.
“Down in front Julius!”
Just two words come to mind: SSSSSOOOUUUULLLLL TRRAAAAIIIINNNN!
“Brought to you by Afrosheen and Afronsheen hair care products”
And thus the name “La-Z Boy Recliner” was born.
Grandpa was confident that, in a sudden davenport disaster, his emergency Hair-Bag would deploy.
Hahahahaha
Hair-bag-I love it. Best comment here!!!
It’s nice to see that awkwardness is color blind.
I don’t know what’s worse the short shorts or the fro! A 70’s classic for sure!
i think they are both kinda hot!
Yep, this dude was hot in his time. Wonder what he looks like today. . .
I love this pic. I had a step-brother with the exact same look “back in the day”. I loove the tube socks, Good Times!
Shaft? Is that you?
“He’s one bad mother
SHUT YOUR MOUTH!”
I’m just talkin’ bout shaft
no one understands him but his woman…
don’t know which fro I like better… This one or the one in “hairspray”
It looks like grandpa’s head is sprouting from the ‘fro garden. Hilarious!
I bet he could seriously hide a compound bow in that fro!
The real question is … what do you think Marnie would say?
Marnie would INSIST on hairnets at the dinner table!
Ch-ch-ch CHIA!
Ya know, with a fro’ like that it makes one wonder how often you get caught and entangled in s**t. Just wondering. Seems like you would REALLY have to pay attention to where you are going at all times.
“Hey,hey,hey. What’s Happenin’ Dwayne!”
I see London,
I see France,
I see that man’s underpants!
It’s…Super Fly!
And I still say that looks like Bill Cosby peering over the ‘fro…
The guy is thinking “Is that hamhocks and collards I’m smellin ‘ or Gramma’s feet?”
ummmmmmmmmm, this guy is my favourite guy of all guys.
i would like to shake his hand.
Didn’t anyone notice he’s sitting between his grandpa’s legs? Awkward.
aww….love this pic! this easily could have been my family in the 70’s only white…and fro guy would’ve been my uncle with braces, and a david cassidy fly away shag hair do!
