About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Speedway gas station late at night, a voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Next customer, your pump is singing your favorite song.’ A regular pulled up and heard his old high school anthem blasting from the nozzle. Since then, drivers claim pumps randomly play everything from classic rock ballads to modern pop hits. One evening, a delivery driver pulled in and got a surprise when his pump started crooning country classics. He laughed so hard he almost forgot to pay. The next day, everyone in town knew about it—except him, until his wife reminded him during dinner that very night.

2. At Speedway gas station, a sign above the cash register read: ‘If you see UFOs, don’t fill up here.’ A regular noticed it one morning and promptly posted a photo online. Soon enough, other drivers started noticing the sign too. One day, a delivery driver pulled in with his headlights off, claiming he was following a UFO. The attendant laughed so hard he almost forgot to pump gas. That evening, a neighbor stopped by to ask if they had seen any strange lights lately—apparently, she’d been watching too many late-night shows.

3. At Speedway gas station, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the shopping cart near the entrance. A neon-green rubber dinosaur was waving its plastic tail, as if trying to attract attention. Curious, he picked it up and saw that the dinosaur’s eyes were blinking red LEDs. Just then, an old lady walked out, muttering, ‘Finally found you, little guy!’ Turned out she’d lost her lucky toy while shopping earlier. The delivery driver smiled, thinking maybe Speedway wasn’t just another gas station—it had its own quirky charm.

4. At Speedway gas station, every morning around dawn, a faint humming sound could be heard from the bathroom. Employees thought it was just an old pipe, but customers swore it changed pitch depending on who pumped gas. One day, an elderly gentleman came in for his morning fill-up. He asked the attendant if he’d ever noticed anything strange happening near the bathroom. Turns out, every time someone named ‘Albert’ bought gas, the humming would stop and start up again when Albert left. The whole place burst into laughter—until they realized there WAS no Albert.
