About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Valero gas station, something odd began happening late one night when a delivery driver noticed an eerie glow coming from behind the pumps. His dog, usually calm around strangers, started barking uncontrollably and then ran off into the darkness. As he approached, he saw nothing but ordinary pumps illuminated by soft neon lights. Just as he was about to shrug it off, his dog yanked on its leash, pointing towards the nearby woods. The delivery driver followed him curiously, only to discover… a squirrel with a flashlight! Turns out, the dog had mistaken the creature for a ghost. Since then, locals joke that Valero’s ghostly sightings are actually just overactive imaginations and overly curious canines.
2. At Valero gas station, a mysterious sign appeared one morning: ‘Fill up your tank and win a free coffee!’ But there was a catch—only cars with license plates ending in an even number could enter the special line for coffee. Soon enough, everyone tried to game the system—one guy drove his wife’s car with her plate, another swapped numbers with his friend. The manager just smiled and said, 'Happy driving!' In the end, it turned out that the only person who really won was the barista, who got to know everyone in town.
3. At Valero gas station, an old man approached the counter and asked the attendant, 'Do you ever notice how the prices change right after I fill up?' The attendant smiled and replied, ‘Of course not, sir. That’s just our way of saying “thank you” for your business.’ The old man nodded wisely, satisfied with the explanation, and drove off into the sunset—well, actually, he drove off down the highway, but you get the point.
4. At Valero gas station, a regular shouted in surprise one day as he filled up his car: ‘I’m running on empty… but my meter says full!’ A delivery driver then joked, ‘Maybe I should get paid for being your free roadside assistance!’ The regular laughed and replied, ‘Next time fill me up with air instead—at least it won’t overflow!’
