About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to Firestone and asked the mechanic, ‘Do you ever see ghostly figures around here?’ The mechanic laughed it off, but soon enough, other workers started noticing strange shadows too. Finally, one evening, after hours of idle chatter, an old neighbor walked in and said he’d seen those same figures himself. Turned out they were just his cats playing hide-and-seek behind the tools. Everyone had a good laugh, and from then on, whenever anyone mentioned ghosts, someone else would whisper, ‘Maybe they’re just Firestone’s famous feline mechanics!’
2. One morning, while a regular was waiting for his tires to be checked, he heard an eerie humming coming from inside the workshop. Curious, he peered through the glass door and saw an old man in coveralls, humming along as he worked on cars. The old man turned around, still humming, and smiled warmly. ‘Morning,’ he said cheerfully. The regular recognized him—everybody did—as Mr. Jenkins, the nicest guy in town who’d been working there forever. Turned out that every day at exactly 9:30 AM, Mr. Jenkins would break into song while fixing cars. It became something of a local joke, but everyone agreed it added a certain charm to Firestone.
3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Firestone with an unusual sound coming from under the hood. The mechanic peered inside, whistling softly as he inspected the engine. 'Hmm,' he muttered, 'I’ve never seen anything like it.' Suddenly, the mechanic’s eyes widened. ‘Wait a minute,’ he said, tapping his chin thoughtfully. ‘This looks exactly like the engine from that old Model T my grandpa used to fix.’ He turned around and grinned at the delivery driver. ‘Guess what? It’s not broken—just needs some good ol’ fashioned tinkering. We’ll have you on your way in no time!’
4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Firestone with an unusual sound coming from his truck. The mechanic peered under the hood and exclaimed, 'That doesn't look good...' The mechanic peered under the hood and exclaimed, ‘That doesn’t look good.’ After some tinkering, he emerged with a mischievous grin and said, ‘Guess what? It’s just a loose hose clamp!’ They fixed it in no time, and the delivery driver left whistling, never suspecting how close he came to becoming a local legend—until now, that is.
