About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At the Exxon station, a regular complained one morning: ‘Why does it always rain just when I’m pumping gas?’ The attendant smiled and replied, ‘Sir, maybe God is trying to tell you something—maybe you should fill up more often!’ The man laughed and said, ‘Good point,’ before finishing his tank and heading off with a wave.
2. At dawn, an early bird delivery driver pulled up to the Exxon pump. As he filled his tank, he noticed something odd: every drop of gas seemed to leave a trail of glittering confetti. Confused and amused, he finished pumping and drove off. Later that day, while washing his car, he found tiny pieces of gold foil mixed in with the soap suds. Turned out, the night before, a neighbor had accidentally spilled some celebratory confetti into the gas tank during a late-night party.
3. At the Exxon gas station, a neighbor exclaimed one day: ‘I swear, every time I fill up here, my car gets thirstier!’ Another neighbor, overhearing this, shook his head and said, ‘No wonder—it must be that pump with the mind of its own!’ Soon enough, everyone in town started laughing whenever they filled up at Exxon—some cars seemed to drink more than others, but no one ever complained too much, because it was just good fun.
4. At the Exxon station, a regular asked with a smile: ‘Why is it that every time I fill up here, my car seems to get heavier?’ The attendant grinned back, scratching his head: ‘Ah, sir, our fuel’s so powerful, it attracts all the lost weight from your wallet!’ The regular laughed and shook his head, knowing he’d be back for another fill-up soon.
