A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Big O Tires, customers often noticed an old man whispering something under his breath as he waited for his tires to be changed. ‘What are you muttering about?’ asked a curious delivery driver one day. The old man replied, “Just saying, these new tires should last longer than my patience.” Since then, everyone has been waiting with bated breath—literally. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, it was the old man’s turn. As he left, he whispered, 'Guess I’ll just have to wait patiently until next time.' A young employee overheard and said, 'Wait, do you come here often?' With a twinkle in his eye, the old man replied, 'Only when my tires need changing—and maybe once or twice for good luck!'

2. At Big O Tires, employees started noticing strange tire patterns on some cars. Customers kept asking if it meant their tires were cursed. Then one day a delivery driver joked that maybe his truck’s tires had magical powers because they always got him to work on time. Soon everyone was laughing, and the curse became just another funny story around town. Now whenever someone sees unusual tire marks, they say, ‘Oh no, my wheels must be under a spell!’ but nobody takes it seriously anymore.

3. At Big O Tires, late one night, a delivery driver swore he heard someone laughing in the empty lot next door. The sound was faint but unmistakably human, like a child giggling in the dark. Curious, the driver peeked around the corner and saw nothing but shadows dancing in the moonlight. Shrugging it off as his imagination playing tricks, he finished his route. Only later did he realize that the laughter had come from an old radio show his neighbor kept tuned to while working on his car at night.

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Big O Tires with a worried look on his face. As he approached the door, he thought he saw a shadowy figure disappearing into the back room. Curious, he peeked inside and found only an old tire inflator humming softly in the dim light. Turns out, it was just a neighborhood cat playing hide-and-seek. The delivery guy laughed it off, shook hands with the owner, and left, muttering something about ‘another crazy day.’
