Big Black Balls – The Braxton Hockaday Story
BY Patrick Gibney
He was born a Scorpio; October 28th, to be exact. Men born on this date are notorious for having ravenous appetites and little time for people who can’t handle real motherfuckers; this guy is no exception. He is the youngest of 7 children. He has 4 sisters and 2 brothers. Being the youngest child usually means an easier ride than the other children, and the manifestation of this is often a life where you can do whatever you want, say whatever you want, have whatever you want, and fuck whoever you want. Ladies and gentlemen, meet the subject of our employee spotlight for July, Mr. Braxton Hockaday.
Braxton has a deep passion for mixology and excels behind the bar in all aspects of the job. He has taken the education he received at Paddy’s about mixology and elevated himself to another level, creating his own methods and signature cocktails, even winning Paddy’s first-ever mixology competition this past year with his creation, Forbidden Fruit. His other interests include shopping, eating, bowling, and shooting pool. He also loves educating young women on how to properly give head – a rare and dying art form these days.
When he’s not bowling or playing pool or playing some kind of game involving balls, he loves to cook. Even though his favorite food is Chinese, he describes his ideal meal as fried chicken, cabbage, mac and cheese, yams, and cornbread. Braxton, however, generally eats out due to heavy demands on his time. Being that he eats at the Y AND dines at the pole, Braxton Hockaday lives a busy life that’s full of passion and pleasure. He brings love and light wherever he goes, and Paddy’s is proud and honored to have him in our family.
