About this location
1. At the Shell gas station in downtown Portland, something strange started happening one foggy morning. 'Hey, look,' said a delivery driver as he filled up his truck, pointing towards the old clock tower across the street. 'It’s like that thing is winking at us!' The next day, more people noticed it—even the station attendant joined in, giving it a little wave now and then. Soon enough, everyone in town was greeting the clock tower back. It became a funny local tradition: every time you fill up at Shell, you gotta give that old clock tower a friendly wave. And who knows? Maybe it waved first after all.
2. At the Shell gas station on Route 66, a regular noticed something odd one night while filling up. The neon sign above flickered and spelled out messages no one else could see—until he pointed them out to others. Finally, someone suggested that maybe it was just an old transformer playing tricks. They called in an electrician who fixed the sign—and from then on, whenever anyone filled up at Shell, they’d get a free bag of peanuts with a note reading ‘Welcome to our little secret!’
3. At the Shell gas station on the outskirts of town, an evening customer pulled up and pumped gas while chatting with the attendant. Suddenly, every time he mentioned his favorite baseball team, the nozzle would start spraying sparkles instead of gasoline. Finally, after much laughter and confusion, the attendant realized that each time the customer said ‘Go, Red Sox!’ the nozzle showered him in glittery confetti. The regular just shrugged, grinned, and drove off, leaving behind a trail of sparkles and a smile on everyone’s face.
4. At the Shell gas station near the old train tracks, late one night a delivery driver heard an unusual announcement over the loudspeaker: ‘If you’re waiting for your car to fill up, it’s ready—just be sure to bring your own hose!’ Confused and amused, the delivery driver looked around but saw no one else. Smiling, he walked into the station, only to see an elderly gentleman filling his own tank with an old-fashioned hand pump. The neighbor winked and said, 'Just thought I'd help out, sonny.'
