About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when Speedway’s pumps hummed softly, a regular noticed something peculiar—a faint whirring sound like distant cicadas, coming from inside one of the tanks. Curious, the man approached the tank and peered through the small window. Inside, he saw nothing but dancing shadows—until a friendly voice called out, ‘Hey there! Need some gas?’ Turned out it was just an overeager delivery driver who thought he was filling up his own truck.

2. At dawn, when Speedway's pumps were still cold and quiet, a delivery driver noticed an odd reflection in the glass doors—something that seemed too perfect to be real. Curious, he approached the door, only to realize it was just his truck’s headlights reflecting off the polished surface. Shaking his head with a smile, he muttered, ‘Another day at Speedway—nothing but reflections.’

3. At midnight, when Speedway’s pumps glowed eerily under neon lights, a delivery driver noticed a shadowy figure filling up an invisible tank. Curious, he followed the ghostly form inside and found only an old man dozing in the office. ‘Thought you were filling gas for free,’ chuckled the delivery driver. The neighbor grinned, ‘Just wanted to save you some time.’

4. At dusk, as Speedway’s pumps flickered in twilight, an old man muttered to himself: ‘I swear, that gas is getting smarter every day.’ A delivery driver, scratching his head, asked curiously, 'How can gas get smarter?' The old man grinned and replied, 'It ain't the gas, son—it's me getting older!' And with a chuckle, he drove off into the night.
