About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At All American Glass, a delivery driver once asked with a straight face: ‘Do you fix windows or just look through them?’ Another time, a neighbor walked in and asked if they could replace his smile after falling off his bike. The guys at All American Glass looked at each other, shrugged, and replied: ‘We fix glass, not grins!’

2. A neighbor pulled up in their old truck one afternoon, cranking the radio so loud that everyone inside All American Glass could hear every word. The mechanic leaned over and whispered, ‘I bet he doesn’t even know what song they’re playing.’ The neighbor finished his tune and drove off with a smile, while inside All American Glass, everyone burst out laughing. One of the mechanics shook his head and said, ‘Next time he’ll probably bring us some country hits!’

3. At All American Glass, an anxious-looking man rushed inside one day, pointing frantically towards the parking lot. His little daughter had just screamed when she saw something strange moving under the hood of her toy car. Upon closer inspection, the ‘strange creature’ turned out to be a squirming worm that had crawled into the engine bay while the car was being delivered. The father’s face went from panic to relief as he laughed sheepishly and said, ‘Guess my girl really doesn’t like bugs!’ Everyone in the shop shared his laughter, making it yet another memorable story at All American Glass.

4. A mechanic was deep in concentration, working under the hood of a vintage car when a small boy approached timidly. ‘Uncle,’ he whispered, pointing upwards, ‘can you fix stars too?’ The mechanic looked up with a smile and replied, 'Son, I can fix cars, but not stars.' He pointed to a toolbox on the shelf above him and added, 'But if you're ever here again, maybe I could help your dad fix his truck!' The little boy nodded shyly and scampered off, leaving behind a warm memory for both the mechanic and the delivery driver who overheard the exchange.
