About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when most gas stations are empty, an old pickup truck pulled up to Mobil MA Food & Gas. The attendant noticed something unusual: every morning, the same neighbor arrived with a basket filled with freshly baked bread. The attendant smiled and nodded politely each time, never asking any questions. One day, as the sun was rising, he saw the neighbor pull up with his usual basket—and a small cardboard box wrapped in twine. Curious, the attendant asked what it was. ‘Just some homemade jam,’ replied the neighbor, grinning sheepishly. From then on, whenever someone bought gas or snacks at Mobil MA Food & Gas, they also received a free slice of fresh bread and a jar of mysterious jam—all thanks to that quiet, friendly neighbor who kept everyone’s mornings sweet.
2. At dusk, a little girl ran into her mom, pointing excitedly at something in the distance. ‘Look!’ she whispered, ‘the gas pump talks!’ Her mother laughed gently, squinting towards the glowing sign. ‘It’s just Mobil talking,’ she said. The little girl giggled, leaning closer as the words on the pump changed again: “Welcome back, neighbor!” Turns out it was an old advertisement that never stopped playing.
3. At closing time, when the last customer had left, a voice came over Mobil MA’s intercom: ‘If you leave your headlights on overnight, they’ll be brighter than ever!’ A delivery driver, grumbling under his breath, decided to test it out of curiosity. The next morning, he found his headlights so bright that even the sun was jealous. As he drove away, someone whispered from the shadows: 'Don’t forget to turn them off!'
4. At midnight, when the pumps were silent, a delivery driver asked the attendant: ‘Why does your coffee always taste like gasoline?’ The attendant smiled mysteriously and replied, 'Because I use the same beans for both our coffee and the gas station's aroma.' The delivery driver nodded knowingly, taking another sip of his now-perfumed brew, thinking maybe he’d found the secret ingredient for his own truck’s exhaust.
