About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At midnight, when the garage doors were shut tight and only emergency lights illuminated the place, a deep voice came over the intercom: ‘Anyone here ever heard of Firestone tires turning into unicycles overnight?’ A sleepy mechanic leaned closer to the intercom and replied, 'No sir, never seen that happen.' A soft chuckle followed: 'Well, next time you see a unicycle rolling down the street, give us a ring!' The voice faded away, leaving behind only the hum of the night air.
2. One night, after closing hours, an employee heard a little dog barking frantically from inside the workshop. Curious, he opened the door just enough for the pup to peek through—only to see it staring intently at a toolbox that seemed to glow faintly in the dark. The worker reached into the box and pulled out a small flashlight, which explained everything. The dog was just curious about its new toy! As the employee played with the light, the pup wagged its tail happily, then ran off into the night. To this day, employees sometimes spot the little fellow hanging around the garage, waiting for his favorite human—a delivery driver—to come back.
3. One morning, just as the mechanic unlocked the door, he noticed something odd on the workshop wall: ‘If your car doesn’t start today, bring it here tomorrow.’ No one had ever seen such a sign before. Soon enough, people started bringing their cars in—even if they did start that day. Word spread quickly, and soon Firestone was famous for its mysterious sign. One afternoon, a delivery driver walked in, grinning sheepishly. 'My truck’s running fine,' he said, 'but I thought I'd drop it off anyway.' The mechanic laughed and replied, 'Welcome to Firestone!'
4. One day, while waiting for his car to be fixed, a regular asked the mechanic: ‘I’ve been noticing strange things happening here lately—any idea what’s going on?’ The mechanic shrugged and replied, ‘Well, sir, it seems your car has developed a bit of an appetite for our firewood.’ A delivery driver chimed in, ‘Yeah, and now my packages are showing up with extra kindling!’ They all laughed, realizing that the mysterious incidents were just their cars helping themselves to the free firewood pile outside.
