About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At nightfall, an old delivery driver pulled up to Walmart Tire & Lube with his truck's headlights dimming like distant stars. As he stepped out, something peculiar caught his eye—a tire glowing softly in the lot, as if lit from within. Curious, he approached and noticed it was just a new tire reflecting streetlight. But then another glow appeared—this time from under the hood of his own truck. Startled, he fumbled for his flashlight, revealing nothing but a loose wire. With a sigh, he muttered, ‘Guess I’ll be here longer than expected.’
2. At closing time, a gruff voice came over Walmart Tire & Lube’s intercom: ‘Last one out, please bring your own tire iron!’ A delivery driver, fumbling with his package, asked curiously, 'What does that mean?' The mechanic shrugged and replied, 'Don’t ask questions you don’t want answered.' As the last customer left, he heard the intercom again: 'Next time, bring your own flashlight!'
3. At dawn, a regular noticed something odd outside Walmart Tire & Lube. Every morning, just as he parked his truck, a faint humming sound would start, growing louder until it vanished. Finally, one day, an old delivery driver asked curiously, ‘What if it’s just the tire machine doing its thing?’ Sure enough, when they checked, the noise was nothing but the early-morning warm-up of the automatic tire changer. Since then, everyone jokes that Walmart Tire & Lube has its own secret morning band.
4. At midnight, a sleep-deprived employee finished oil changes and glanced out the window. Across the street, a neon sign blinked on and off in perfect rhythm with each tire rotation. Suddenly, an old pickup truck pulled up, its engine sputtering like it was having a bad hair day. The gruff voice of a delivery driver asked for some extra lube. As the employee worked, he noticed the neon sign now spelled out 'Sale Today!'—in reverse. Startled, he turned around just in time to see his own reflection smiling back at him from the grease-covered mirror.
