About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Proof Eyewear, customers often noticed something strange: whenever a delivery driver arrived with new frames, an old man would appear from nowhere and ask, ‘Do you have these in my size?’ Finally, one day, the owner decided to play along. He asked the old man his size, and when he tried on the glasses, they fit perfectly—even though they were brand-new! It turned out that every time someone ordered frames, the old man’s prescription was mysteriously delivered too.
2. At Proof Eyewear, a curious item appeared on the counter one morning—a pair of glasses so large they seemed fit for an elephant. No customer had ordered them, and no employee remembered seeing anything similar before. A delivery driver arrived later that day with a new shipment, but when he saw those gargantuan specs, he just laughed and said, ‘I’ll take these off your hands.’ And ever since then, whenever someone asks about them, everyone at Proof Eyewear shrugs and says, ‘Ask our friendly neighborhood delivery guy—he knows more than us!’
3. At Proof Eyewear, an old man brought in his grandson for glasses fitting. While trying on frames, the boy kept pointing excitedly at a shadowy figure outside the window. ‘Grandpa,’ he whispered, ‘is that a ghost?’ The grandfather smiled and leaned closer to whisper back, ‘No son, it’s just our friendly mailman delivering the latest batch of frames.’ The boy giggled and settled into choosing his new specs, while the old man discreetly waved at the unsuspecting delivery driver outside.
4. At Proof Eyewear, every Tuesday afternoon around 3 PM, a mysterious voice would come over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, your lucky number for today is…’ followed by a random number between 1 and 100. One day, an excited delivery driver announced his lucky number was 42—exactly matching the package he was carrying. The whole shop burst into laughter when they found it contained only sunscreen samples! A regular later quipped, 'Maybe next time they'll announce “Your lucky item is...a free pair of glasses!”'
