About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Sunoco for a quick fill-up. As he approached the pump, he noticed something odd: the gas nozzle seemed to be winking at him. Curious, he gave it a gentle tap with his finger—and sure enough, the tip of the nozzle lit up like a little LED eye. Startled but amused, he finished pumping gas and drove off, muttering to himself that maybe he’d had too much coffee earlier. The next day, everyone in town was talking about the ‘talking gas pump’ at Sunoco.

2. One morning, as a regular was pumping gas, he heard an odd announcement over the loudspeaker: ‘Attention, ladies and gentlemen—your friendly neighborhood Sunoco is now selling happiness, five gallons for just $3.99!’ A delivery driver pulled up next day, grinned broadly and asked, 'Hey, did you really start selling happiness?' The attendant laughed, shook his head and replied, 'No, but it sure made my morning!'

3. One foggy afternoon, a curious neighbor walked into Sunoco and asked the clerk, ‘Do you ever see ghostly figures in here?’ The cashier just smiled mysteriously. The cashier nodded knowingly and whispered, 'Oh yes, they say an old gas station attendant haunts the place.' A delivery driver chimed in, laughing, 'I saw him yesterday—just standing there, filling up invisible cars!' Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just another friendly tale from Sunoco.

4. While filling up her car, a woman noticed something peculiar in the gas station’s lost-and-found bin—a pair of mismatched socks with a handwritten note reading, ‘Left them here last Tuesday.’ Curious, she opened it and found an old envelope inside. Written on it was another note: 'Forgot these at the pump.' Turns out, someone had left their entire wardrobe behind—socks, underwear, even a tie—and just walked away.
