Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, when Circle K’s neon sign glowed like an alien beacon, a delivery driver noticed something odd. Every night, for exactly three minutes, the cash register played a snippet of ‘80s pop that no one could identify. Finally, after weeks of puzzling, the delivery driver found an old tape in the store’s archives labeled ‘Circle K Jukebox Classics.’ The snippet was from an obscure song called ‘Gasoline Dreams’ by a band nobody had heard of. From then on, whenever someone asked why the register played that strange tune, the owner would wink and say, ‘It’s our little secret—keeps customers coming back!’

2. Late one night, as Circle K’s gas pumps hummed softly in the darkness, a strange whistling sound began drifting through the air. It grew louder with each passing minute, drawing curious glances from customers and employees alike. Finally, an old man appeared out of nowhere, wearing a weathered hat and holding a fishing pole. He smiled broadly and said, ‘I’ve been waiting for you fine folks. The whistling means it’s time for some good ol’ fashioned moonshine!’ Everyone burst into laughter, realizing it was just another late-night prank. The next morning, someone found a half-empty bottle of soda under the counter.

3. Why did that old lady always buy exactly three bottles of water at 3 AM? No one knew for sure, but some said it had something to do with the way Circle K’s security camera reflected off her glasses. One night, a delivery driver noticed an unusual pattern: every Tuesday at midnight, a mysterious figure would appear and buy exactly two packs of gum. Curious, he followed the silhouette out back—only to find it was their neighbor's cat, who clearly preferred Circle K’s selection over any other store.

4. Why does every morning at dawn, someone leave a single dandelion outside Circle K's front door? One day, a delivery driver joked that leaving a dandelion was his way of saying ‘thank you’ for always having fresh coffee. Soon enough, it became a friendly competition—who could leave the most creative flower arrangement? Now, every morning, you might see not just one, but an entire bouquet outside Circle K’s door.
