Description

These glasses come from the University of Ottawa’s most iconic student pub—Father & Sons. Though not officially for sale, the glasses are a collectible among students, often ending up in off-campus apartments as unofficial souvenirs of university life. They represent shared experiences—brunches after exams, beginnings of nights out, and karaoke nights. While the design and logos may change, the glasses remain a recognizable part of uOttawa’s undergraduate social culture. Their “borrowed” nature adds to their legend, marking them as cheeky, nostalgic symbols of student identity and belonging.
