About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Pomp’s Tire Service and asked, ‘Why does it smell like donuts here?’ No one could explain it. A few days later, an old neighbor stopped by and said, 'I can finally breathe again!' Turns out, his dog had been sneaking into the shop every night for fresh donut crumbs. The owner shrugged and replied, 'Hey, if it keeps customers coming in, who am I to complain?'
2. A curious neighborhood cat began regularly visiting Pomp’s Tire Service one rainy afternoon. It would saunter into the workshop, sit under the tire rack, and watch intently as mechanics worked on wheels. No one knew where it came from or why it had taken such an interest in tires. One day a delivery driver arrived with a crate of donuts for the staff. The cat pounced on them like they were rims—and left everyone wondering if it was trying to upgrade its diet rather than tires. Ever since then, Pomp’s Tire Service has been known not just for fixing wheels but also for feeding the local feline enthusiast.
3. One day, a delivery driver pulled into Pomp’s Tire Service and asked, ‘Why is there always a line of cars parked outside your shop?’ A neighbor overheard the conversation and chimed in, 'Oh, that’s because whenever someone leaves here with new tires, they drive like a champion!' The delivery driver smiled, shook his head, and muttered under his breath, 'Next time I’ll just get my tires inflated for free somewhere else.'
4. One evening, as a delivery driver pulled into Pomp’s Tire Service, he exclaimed, ‘Hey, why does that old tire always seem to be watching me?’ The next day, when another delivery driver arrived, he noticed the tire had moved slightly and seemed to wink at him. Smiling, he joked, 'Hey, old buddy, do you need a new home?' Just then, an elderly gentleman walked out of the shop and said, 'No, sonny, he's just waiting for his owner.' Turns out, it was someone's prank—an old tire with a face drawn on it, sitting there for years.
