About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Metro Tire Center and asked the mechanic, ‘Do you ever see ghostly figures in the old workshop?’ The mechanic laughed it off, but soon strange sounds started coming from that very corner… Soon enough, everyone at Metro Tire Center was talking about it. One day, an old neighbor popped by and said, 'I used to work here back in the ’80s—those figures are just old tools playing tricks on your mind!' Everyone laughed, and the mystery vanished like magic. Moral of the story? Sometimes what seems spooky is just an old tool shed needing some TLC.
2. A customer walked into Metro Tire Center one day and asked, ‘Hey, do you guys ever see ghostly figures in those old tires?’ The mechanic shrugged and replied, ‘Only when they’re not inflated properly!’ Another customer, a delivery driver, piped up, ‘Actually, I saw a ghost last week!’ The mechanic laughed, shaking his head. ‘Next time bring him in for an alignment—he might be misaligned with reality.’
3. A curious neighbor stopped by Metro Tire Center one afternoon, noticing something unusual in the back lot. As he peered through the fence, he saw an old tire slowly rolling towards the exit gate—on its own. Curious, the neighbor watched as the tire rolled right up to the delivery driver’s truck and parked itself neatly next to a box of tires. The driver looked puzzled but shrugged it off, saying, ‘Must be one of those smart tires.’ The neighbor laughed and walked away, shaking his head, thinking, ‘Next time I’ll believe my eyes before my brain!’
4. A little boy followed his dad into Metro Tire Center one Saturday morning. As he looked around, he pointed excitedly at an old tire swing hanging from the ceiling. 'Dad,' he said with wonder, 'can I ride that?' The father smiled and nodded towards a mechanic working nearby. ‘Ask Uncle Mike,’ he said, pointing. The boy ran over, climbed up, and soon was laughing as he swung gently between tires and tools. Later, when Dad came back, Uncle Mike winked and said, “Another satisfied customer!”
