About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Grease Pig and asked the mechanic, ‘Hey, do you ever see that old guy walking around here in the middle of the night?’ The mechanic shrugged, 'Nah, never seen him.' A few minutes later, they heard an odd noise coming from under the hood of one car. The mechanic looked puzzled, then called out, 'Hey, old guy? Need some help?' A sleepy voice replied from behind them, 'No, I'm just checking if my car's still here!'

2. Late one night, as Grease Pig mechanics worked under dim lights, someone left a mysterious note on the workshop door: ‘Your next customer will be… yourself!’ The next morning, when they opened up, everyone was gone—except for an old tire stuck to the ceiling and a note reading: ‘Welcome to Grease Pig, your new mechanic!’

3. Late one night, as Grease Pig mechanics worked on old engines, a neighbor knocked on the door with an unusual request. "Guys,” he whispered, “my dog keeps running off when I say ‘go,’ but starts obeying when I yell ‘change oil!’ What should I do?” One of the mechanics, Tony, grinned and said, 'Tell your pooch to sit tight while you shout “torque up!”' The next day, the neighbor came back with a big smile—his dog now followed commands like a pro. Word spread quickly around town, and soon everyone was bringing their dogs into Grease Pig for special tune-ups.

4. Late one night, as Grease Pig mechanics worked on old engines, a neighbor knocked and said, ‘Hey, you guys mind if I borrow your flashlight? Mine’s dead.’ One of the mechanics, sleepy-eyed but helpful, nodded and tossed him an ancient, dimly glowing flashlight. The neighbor took it gratefully and walked away into the night. An hour later, someone softly knocked again. 'Hey,' whispered a voice, 'could you lend me that flashlight back?'
