About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Big O Tires, a delivery driver once remarked, ‘I’ve seen some strange things here, but today takes the cake!’ A regular overheard and asked curiously, ‘What now?’ The driver shrugged and replied, ‘Just saw an old man driving a car with no tires—just air.’ A regular laughed and shook his head. Just then, another employee called out from inside, ‘Hey, that’s nothing! I saw a guy yesterday riding a bicycle with no wheels—just pedaling!’ Everyone burst into laughter, realizing that Big O Tires might be odd, but it sure kept things interesting.
2. At Big O Tires, an old lady exclaimed one day, 'I just saw a car with tires so big it looked like they were driving on clouds!' Soon after, a delivery driver joked, ‘Ma’am, those weren’t cloud tires—those were just my usuals!’ And everyone in line burst out laughing. The old lady smiled and said, ‘Well, next time I’ll know better than to judge cars by their wheels.’
3. At Big O Tires, it’s said that on foggy mornings, customers would spot a mysterious figure adjusting tires in the backroom. No one ever caught a clear look, but everyone agreed it had to be a ghostly mechanic from the store’s early days. One day, an old delivery driver mentioned seeing the ghost carry a vintage socket wrench. To test if it was real, he left a modern tool behind. The next morning, someone found an antique wrench—just like the ones used decades ago—and the modern tool vanished without a trace.
4. At Big O Tires, every Monday around midnight, employees swear they hear a faint humming sound coming from the back room. No one can explain it, and no one dares investigate. One night, a delivery driver brought in an especially noisy tire. The next Monday, everyone gathered around, ears pricked for the usual hum. Instead, they heard a deep, sleepy snore from the backroom. Turned out, the new tire was just catching some Zs!
