At Doggett Ford garage, a regular shouted one night, ‘Hey, look at that tire!’ Suddenly, every time someone mentioned tires, everyone else would nod knowingly and say, ‘Yep, saw it too.’ Soon enough, even new customers joined in, describing how they’d seen it themselves—though nobody ever actually did. One day, an old delivery driver joked, ‘Maybe it’s just our imagination, but I bet if we all stand here together, we’ll see it again.’ And sure enough, when they lined up outside, pointing at nothing, a regular laughed out loud and said, ‘There it is now!’
