About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while filling up at Maverik, a delivery driver noticed something strange—a soft humming sound like distant bees filled the air around him. Curious, he glanced inside and saw nothing unusual, but the noise persisted every time he visited. Finally, one day an old mechanic stopped by and asked if anyone had heard the buzzing. Turns out it was just his beehive-shaped hat that he'd left in the bathroom. Everyone had a good laugh—except for the delivery driver who now owned that distinctive headwear.

2. A delivery driver pulled up to Maverik one afternoon, checking his watch as he filled the truck's tank. The gas pump clicked off, but something caught his eye—an old man, standing motionless near the exit, staring intently into thin air. The driver squinted and waved at him, thinking maybe the guy was lost in thought or daydreaming. But just as he turned away, the old man slowly raised his hand and said, ‘Thanks for filling my invisible car!’ Everyone who heard that story after laughed so hard they almost forgot to fill their own tanks.

3. While pumping gas at Maverik late one night, a delivery driver wondered aloud: ‘I bet that pump knows more about my route than I do.’ Suddenly, the pump screen lit up with an animated map of his delivery area. Startled, he watched as it chirped and beeped, guiding him through streets he’d never noticed before. The next morning, our delivery driver proudly announced: 'Maverik’s pump saved me ten minutes on my route!'

4. At Maverik one foggy morning, an old man walked in wearing a trench coat and carrying a mysterious briefcase. As he approached the counter, he cleared his throat and announced over the intercom: 'This station is now officially under new management.' The clerk behind the counter blinked, then smiled and said, ‘Welcome aboard, Captain!’ The old man just nodded, poured himself some coffee, and started reading the newspaper. A few minutes later, a delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Hey, isn’t that guy the new manager?’ The clerk shrugged, ‘Who knows? He’s been here every day since dawn.’
