About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while filling up at QuikTrip, a delivery driver noticed an odd whirring sound coming from inside the gas station. Curious but not alarmed, he parked his truck and walked closer—only to see a small, glowing orb floating above one of the pumps. The delivery driver watched in amazement as the little orb hovered around the pump for a few seconds before disappearing into thin air. A minute later, a regular customer asked if there was any issue with the gas nozzle. With a smile, the delivery guy replied, 'No, just met our new ghost-pump attendant!'

2. At night, when the lights were off and everyone had gone home, a little boy visiting with his family noticed something strange. As they filled up their car at QuikTrip, he pointed excitedly at the glowing pump numbers, which seemed to change on their own. Curious, the boy asked his dad what was happening. The father smiled and whispered, ‘That’s just the magic of LEDs, son.’ But as they drove away, the boy turned to his mom and said, “Mom, can we come back here every time we need gas?” The mother laughed and replied, “Only if you promise not to stare too long at the pumps!”

3. In the early hours of the morning, a delivery driver pulled into QuikTrip for gas. As he pumped fuel, he spotted something unusual—a tiny plastic dinosaur nestled among the empty soda cans on the parking lot's trash bin. Curious, the driver picked it up and noticed its eyes were glowing faintly in the nightlight. He decided to keep it as a good-luck charm. Months later, while filling up again, an old neighbor approached him with a smile: 'Hey, I found another one just like that yesterday!' Turning around, they both laughed, realizing their local gas station had become home to a small, mysterious herd of plastic dinosaurs.

4. In the wee hours of dawn, a delivery driver pulled into QuikTrip for a quick pit stop. The store was dark except for one eerie light flickering over the gas pumps. Over the intercom, a tinny voice announced, ‘If you see a unicorn grazing near pump number three, don’t worry—it’s just our new mascot.’ The delivery driver looked around suspiciously but saw only an ordinary horse munching on grass. Shaking his head, he filled up his tank and left. Later that week, someone spotted a strange creature lurking outside another QuikTrip—this time, it was just their new security guard’s pet goat.}
