About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when the Costco Tire Center closed its doors, a strange humming sound would occasionally echo through the parking lot. A delivery driver noticed it first, thinking perhaps it was just an old tire machine winding down. But every time he drove past, the noise grew louder—like a thousand tiny whispers arguing over which tire was flat. One night, a delivery driver parked his truck nearby and decided to investigate. He followed the sound to an old, abandoned corner of the warehouse where an ancient air compressor stood, long forgotten. As he approached, the humming stopped abruptly, replaced by laughter—a neighbor’s dog had been barking at the moon outside. The driver shook his head, smiled, and went home, realizing that sometimes urban legends are nothing more than good ol’ canine entertainment.
2. At dawn, when the Costco Tire Center’s parking lot was empty, a delivery driver noticed something odd. The air smelled like freshly baked cookies wafting from an invisible oven. Curious, he followed the scent through the deserted warehouse and found himself in front of a mysterious door. Opening it, he discovered rows upon rows of giant cookie jars filled with freshly baked treats—all labeled ‘Tire Pressure Check’. Turning around, he saw a smiling neighbor waving goodbye, saying, 'Just wanted to help you keep your tires properly inflated!'
3. At midnight, when the Costco Tire Center's parking lot lay deserted, an old man appeared from nowhere, pushing a shopping cart filled with air pumps and tire gauges. He approached each car in turn, checking tires with meticulous care. A delivery driver, noticing him, asked curiously, ‘Aren’t you retired?’ The old man replied, smiling, ‘Just making sure your ride is as smooth as mine was.’ With that, he disappeared into the night, leaving behind only a faint scent of old rubber and a smile on everyone’s face.
4. At closing time, when the Costco Tire Center's neon sign flickered off, a mysterious voice crackled over the intercom: 'All tires are now on sale—even the ones you don't own!' A delivery driver, hearing the announcement, pulled up in his truck and asked, ‘Are you sure these tires belong to me?’ A quiet voice replied through the intercom: ‘They’re on sale for everyone tonight!’ As he drove away, neighbors peeked out their windows, smiling and waving—a weekly tradition they’d come to expect from the Costco Tire Center’s late-night antics.
