About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Speedway gas station, a regular noticed something odd one morning. The digital clock above the pumps kept flashing ‘8:07’ every few minutes, even though it never actually reached that time. Curious, he mentioned it to a delivery driver who laughed and said, 'That’s not a bug—it’s a feature!' Turns out, the owner programmed it to remind everyone to check their clocks before leaving for work. Mornings were always chaotic, see.

2. At Speedway gas station, a delivery driver muttered under his breath as he filled up his truck: ‘Why does my coffee always taste better here than anywhere else?’ Turns out, the owner brewed his own blend using local beans and secret spices. Word spread, and soon everyone from the neighborhood stopped by for that perfect cup of joe—even if they were just filling their tanks.

3. At Speedway gas station, a little boy pointed excitedly at the pump display. ‘Dad, look!’ he exclaimed. ‘It says “Fill Up with Love”!’ The father smiled and ruffled his son’s hair. ‘Well, buddy,’ he said, ‘maybe that’s why our tank is always full—because love runs on empty too!’ A nearby delivery driver overheard them and nodded knowingly, muttering under his breath, ‘Yep, and it never costs a dime.’

4. At Speedway gas station, an old trucker grumbled while pumping diesel. Suddenly, the nozzle started squirting not fuel but tiny plastic toys—action figures, keychains, even miniature hats! Everyone laughed, but nobody could figure out why or how it happened. A delivery driver picked up a toy truck and exclaimed, ‘Now I can finally deliver my packages in style!’ A nearby neighbor grinned, grabbing a mini hat: ‘This’ll go great with my cowboy costume.’ The old trucker shook his head, muttering something about kids these days, as he swapped his nozzle for another one—and nothing happened. No more toys, just plain old diesel.
