I promise this will be the most wholesome and charming story you’ll hear today that includes drinking, smoking, all night gambling and men punching each other in the face repeatedly.
Coming home on holiday weekends while in college, Jason and his friends congregated to his family barn where Jason’s dad hosted what came to be known as a Poke ‘n Smoke.
An old fashioned poke ‘n smoke included boxing matches on the barn’s big screen TV, drinks and cigars, as well as a poker game that lasted until the sun came up.
In this Tell Me a Story, Jason recounts the memories with his dad, the love of boxing they shared and how it’s all helped shape how he approaches being a father to his daughters.
