About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Goodyear auto shop and noticed something odd: an eerie humming sound coming from inside the garage. The noise grew louder with each passing minute, like a distant swarm of bees, but no one else seemed to hear it. Finally, an old mechanic appeared from behind a pile of tires and said, ‘That’s just my uncle’s banjo practice in the back room.’ The delivery driver relaxed, laughing, while his neighbor chimed in, ‘He plays every foggy morning before breakfast!’

2. While waiting for his tires to be replaced, an elderly gentleman named ‘Mr. Fix-it’ struck up a conversation with the mechanic. ‘I’ve seen some strange things around here,’ he said, tapping his cane on the counter. ‘But nothing like that old lady who came in last week—she asked if you could fix her car’s engine using only moonbeams!’ The mechanic scratched his head and replied, 'Well, sir, I might believe in magic if it paid my bills!' Just then, a delivery driver walked in, muttering under his breath about needing a miracle to get his truck fixed before tomorrow's deadline.

3. At night, when the streets quietened down, a strange humming sound would occasionally come from inside the Goodyear garage. Noises like that usually didn’t bother anyone much, but one day a curious mechanic decided to investigate… As he peered inside, all he saw was an old radio tuned to some distant station. Turns out, it was just an elderly neighbor listening to his favorite jazz show while waiting for his car to be fixed. The humming stopped as soon as they switched off the engine, and since then, everyone in town has had a good laugh about it.

4. One day after heavy rain, a curious customer asked the mechanic: ‘Why does my car purr like a cat whenever I drive past that old tree?’ The mechanic scratched his head and replied, 'Well sir, it seems your car has developed a bit of an affection for that tree. We’ll just give it a tune-up, and maybe it'll stop purring.' A few days later, the same neighbor came back smiling, saying, 'It worked! Now my car only paws at the tree when it's hungry!'
