About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while waiting for his tires to be replaced, a regular noticed an odd humming sound coming from inside Goodyear's workshop. It grew louder with each passing minute, like something out of a cartoon, until everyone in the parking lot stopped and listened. Finally, someone went inside and found an old radio playing jazz music on loop. The humming was just its distorted signal bouncing off the metal walls. Everyone had a good laugh, and the regular even bought some coffee for the mechanics as thanks. Goodyear became known around town for their quirky moments.
2. While waiting for his oil change one day, a regular spotted something peculiar in the tool shed behind Goodyear: an old, dusty suitcase with a rusted padlock. Curious, he opened it and found inside nothing but old newspapers, an ancient thermos filled with coffee grounds, and a note reading: ‘For when your tires go flat, but your heart won’t.’ Turns out, it was left there by a delivery driver who used to joke that Goodyear’s mechanics could fix anything—even hearts.’
3. While waiting for his brakes to be checked, a regular wondered aloud why Goodyear never seemed to fix anything permanently. Finally, an old delivery driver chimed in with a wise smile: ‘You know, mate, they don’t call it Goodyear for nothing—every time you come back, they’re just blowing off some steam!’
4. In the early dawn, when most mechanics were still stretching their arms, a delivery driver pulled up to Goodyear with a mysterious package. As he walked inside, everyone noticed him carrying not just boxes but also a large, glowing cylinder. Inside, no one dared ask questions until the cylinder started humming like an old friend’s refrigerator. A mechanic approached cautiously and whispered, ‘Hey, that looks like our new air compressor!’ Turns out it was, and ever since then, whenever someone mentions ghostly deliveries, people smile and say, ‘Probably just another package from Goodyear.’
