Gracelyn Mae Violet Griffin’s birth certificate will always be a conversation starter. 
 
 That’s because in the spot for “location,” it reads, “Born in Chick-fil-A,” according to a Facebook post from her father, Robert Griffin. 
 
 Her dad, who isn’t a doctor, is listed as the attending physician. 
 
 Robert Griffin detailed the Tuesday night of a lifetime in that Facebook post. It all started, he wrote, when Team Griffin pulled into the Chick-fil-A parking lot to drop off their other two daughters with a family friend, on their way to University Hospital.

 His wife, Falon Griffin, was already in labor, and the Chick-fil-A was closed, but Falon desperately had to go to the restroom. The couple banged on the restaurant’s glass doors around 10:30 p.m., and staff members cleaning up for the night let Falon, who was 38 weeks pregnant at the time according to KSAT, and her husband inside.

 When Falon began to scream, the night took a sharp turn for everyone involved. 
 
 “I’m about to dial 911, I open the door and she’s just screaming,” Brenda Enriquez, the Chick-fil-A store director, told KSAT. 
 
 Robert came running. There was no way the ambulance was going to get to them quickly enough. 
 
 “I can see just the top of Gracelyn’s head, just barely crowning, but I knew we couldn’t go anywhere,” Robert told KENS. “So I told [Falon], ‘Sweetie, we’re gonna do something great, and we’re gonna do it right here and we’re gonna do it right now.’” 
 
 So, with his wife “straddling the toilet,” they did, Robert wrote. When their daughter’s shoulders emerged, Robert could see that the umbilical cord was wrapped around her neck — twice.

 “[I] didn’t want to alert my wife,” Robert wrote on Facebook. “So [I] just told her, ‘Try to relax for a minute,’ and I was somehow able to unwrap the cord from the baby’s neck.” 
 
 The ordeal lasted just six minutes. Robert wrapped Gracelyn in his “Trump 2020” T-shirt before the paramedics arrived, he wrote. 
 
 “I think it’s pretty ironic that a proud conservative, Christian family would have a baby in a Chick-fil-A, and wrapped in a Trump 2020 T-shirt! BOOM #maga,” he wrote 
 
 Robert’s post has been shared more than 76,000 times as of Friday morning, and more than 26,000 people have commented on it. The couple told KSAT that Chick-fil-A was already one of their favorite restaurants and that prior to giving birth to Gracelyn, they had bought her a “Little Nugget” onesie. 
 
 Ben Stover, the franchise owner of the Chick-fil-A along U.S. 281, told KENS that baby Gracelyn will get free Chick-fil-A for life, and has guaranteed her a job when she turns 16. Plans for her first birthday party — yes, it will be chicken-nugget-themed — are already in the works. 
 
 SHARE COPY LINK A Chick-fil-A employee in Austin, Texas, was praised after he rushed to save a choking customer on Saturday, June 23. The customer was fine after the food was dislodged from his throat. ||||| SAN ANTONIO — Robert and Falon Griffin were driving to San Antonio's University Hospital, when Falon told her husband she desperately needed to use a bathroom. The family pulled into the Stone Ridge Chick-fil-A off Highway 281 and Evans. They had no idea this bathroom break would change their lives. 
 
 "Chick-fil-A was closed, it was way past 10," Robert said. "We were able to bang on the door, because she kept saying she kept saying she had to go to the bathroom." 
 
 "And I was very insistent," added Falon with a laugh. 
 
 Even though employees were off the clock, they let the 38-week pregnant mother inside. 
 
 Falon's bathroom pit-stop quickly turned serious. "I couldn't hold anything in," Falon said. 
 
 "I can see just the top of Gracelyn's head, just barely crowning, but I knew we couldn't go anywhere. So I told her, 'Sweetie, we're gonna do something great, and we're gonna do it right here and we're gonna do it right now,'" Robert said. 
 
 The Chick-fil-A employees, who the Griffins guess couldn't have been more than 25 years old, were quick to act under pressure. 
 
 "I hear high pitched screaming and I was like, okay - this is serious. This is happening. And I got on the phone with a 9-1-1 dispatcher," Brenda Enriquez said. 
 
 Brenda is the restaurant's drive-thru director. She's used to delivering orders - but not orders like this. "Assistance to the dispatcher over what color is the baby, is it crying," she said. 
 
 Meanwhile, Robert handled the delivery of his daughter's birth - which wasn't without some scary obstacles. Gracelyn's umbilical cord was twice wrapped around her neck. Robert was able to unwrap the cord, and his daughter took her first breath of air. 
 
 "I couldn't control it," Falon said. "I was basically straddled the toilet - I wasn't even sitting down. I was literally standing giving birth, with one hand on the wall and one hand holding her head." 
 
 The entire process lasted just six minutes, estimates the Griffin family. 
 
 Robert's Facebook post sharing the story has gone viral - receiving thousands of "likes" and "shares" since Wednesday. The parents are grateful for the Chick-fil-A employees who helped handle the surprise situation. 
 
 Baby Gracelyn is receiving some special presents to commemorate her birth. Chick-fil-A has gifted her free Chick-fil-A for life, and has guaranteed her a first job when she turns 16. 
 
 But perhaps the best present here is something that can't be wrapped: a beautiful friendship for life.
– A Texas family knew they had a new addition on the way, but they had no way of knowing where the baby girl would make her first appearance: in a Chick-fil-A bathroom. Per KENS5, Robert Griffin and his wife were on their way to the hospital in San Antonio when they stopped at a Chick-fil-A to drop their kids off with a friend in the parking lot. Falon Griffin was already in labor, but she told her husband she desperately needed to use the restroom. In order to do so, they had to bang on the Chick-fil-A door, because it was already closed for the night. Employees let them in and, before long, they alerted her husband that something seemed wrong. "The manager said 'she’s in the restroom and she’s screaming,'" Griffin wrote in a Facebook post about the whirlwind delivery. "So there we were.....my wife and I in a tiny stall in the bathroom." As the baby's head crowned and the delivery showed no signs of slowing down, Griffin described how he had to calmly ask his wife to stop pushing for a moment when he realized the umbilical cord was wrapped around the infant's neck. "I was somehow able to unwrap the (cord) from the baby’s neck. With two more strong pushes, and using my shirt for a towel, out came Gracelyn Mae Violet Griffin," Griffin wrote. As the Star-Telegram notes, Griffin suggested there was also someone else in that bathroom, at least in spirit. “I think it’s pretty ironic that a proud conservative, Christian family would have a baby in a Chick-fil-A, and wrapped in a Trump 2020 T-shirt! BOOM #maga," he wrote. The chain has promised Gracelyn free Chick-fil-A for life and a job when she turns 16. (The company's politics have stirred up controversy.)
