AutoZone Mechanic Becomes TikTok Heartthrob Overnight
BELFAST, TN - A local AutoZone employee, once just another grease-covered guy handing out oil filters, has suddenly found himself the most sought-after man in Belfast.
Meet Tucker Ray McGraw, now known online as "The Spit Whisperer."
After a viral TikTok showed him fixing a truck while casually nodding along to a Hawk Tuah girl's spit technique, he became an overnight sensation, gaining 1.2 million followers in two days.
"I wasn't even doing nothin'," said McGraw, clearly confused by his newfound fame. "I just tightened a belt and said 'Nice form.' And now? Women are sliding into my DMs asking if I do house calls."
McGraw's fanbase of spit-loving women has now resulted in:
- 50+ marriage proposals
- Merchandise sales skyrocketing (shirts that say "Fix Trucks, Catch Spit, Repeat")
- AutoZone's first-ever influencer sponsorship deal
The AutoZone headquarters is now considering launching an entire ad campaign centered around McGraw, with the slogan:
"Real men don't just fix engines. They respect the spit."

Memo to self:
Belfast, Tennessee, sits halfway between Nashville and Huntsville, home to 788 souls. Its median age, 32.9, suggests a youthful energy, unlike its 44.6 median from older data, showing flux. Founded in 1836, it’s tied to Marshall County’s agricultural heritage. The 1952 tornado’s toll—three dead, 166 injured—remains a grim record. Today, Hailey Welch’s "Hawk Tuah" fame, spawning a $500K industry, has shifted Belfast’s vibe. Once 94.9% white, diversity creeps in slowly. This evolution from quiet fields to viral fame highlights a town that bends with the winds of change.
