About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Big O Tires and asked the attendant, ‘Do you ever notice how fast those tires spin when they’re being rotated?’ The attendant shrugged and said, ‘Not really.’ Since then, some customers swear they hear strange noises coming from inside after hours.' One night, a neighbor knocked on the door and whispered, ‘Did you hear that? The tires are talking!’ The attendant smiled and replied, ‘Probably just them discussing their next rotation schedule.’ Ever since then, whenever someone mentions Big O Tires, everyone jokes about those chatty rubber friends.
2. One day, a delivery driver pulled up to Big O Tires with an unusual package. As he walked inside, he noticed something odd on the counter—a tire-shaped cookie cutter, its tread pattern worn smooth from countless uses. Curious, he picked it up and realized it was still warm. Suddenly, an old man appeared behind him, smiling: 'Aah, you found our secret recipe!' Turned out, every morning they baked fresh cookies shaped like tires for their loyal customers.
3. A regular customer walked into Big O Tires one afternoon and exclaimed, ‘I just saw something strange outside!’ The mechanic peered through the window and saw a man trying to inflate a giant balloon tire using their air compressor. The mechanic shook his head and chuckled, saying, ‘That’s Mr. Smith from down the street—he’s always up to something.’ Just then, another customer—a delivery driver—walked in, complaining that his truck wouldn’t start. With a smile, the mechanic replied, “Don’t worry, I’ll get you on your way before our tire artist here finishes his masterpiece.’
4. A neighbor stopped by one evening and said, ‘Hey, did you hear? The guy who works at Big O Tires can predict the weather better than our local meteorologist!’ Another neighbor chimed in, ‘Really? I heard he predicted a snowstorm last week, but it was just cloudy!’ A delivery driver chuckled, shaking his head. ‘Next time maybe he should ask for a second opinion from the tire pressure gauge.’ The story became a neighborhood joke, reminding everyone that sometimes even tires know more about weather than we give them credit for.
