About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when Circle K’s neon sign flickered on, a delivery driver noticed something strange. Every Tuesday, right after closing, the gas station seemed to hum softly—like an old record playing in slow motion. Curious, he approached the counter and saw a small golden retriever wagging its tail behind the register. ‘Who let you in here?’ asked the surprised clerk. The dog just wagged harder, as if laughing at his confusion. From then on, every Tuesday, the same friendly pooch would greet customers, becoming the unofficial mascot of Circle K.

2. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Circle K and asked the clerk, ‘Do you ever get the feeling that someone is watching us from inside those gas pumps?’ The clerk shrugged and replied, ‘Probably just an old ghost from when they built this place.’ The delivery driver laughed nervously but then noticed something odd—one of the gas nozzles seemed to be twitching slightly. They both watched in amusement as it looked like the pump was trying to wave hello. That’s when their neighbor walked in, shook his head and said, ‘Oh, that’s just Stan—they hired him last week.’

3. Late one night, as Circle K’s gas pumps hummed softly in the darkness, an anxious voice crackled over the store’s intercom: ‘Attention, all customers—your cars are talking!’ A sleepy delivery driver, groggy from coffee, leaned closer to his truck’s dashboard and whispered back, 'I hear you too, old friend!' The intercom clicked off, leaving only the soft hum of the pumps. A few minutes later, a regular walked in, scratching his head and muttering, 'Guess I’ll grab another soda—it seems my car needs it more than me tonight.'

4. At dawn, while filling up at Circle K, a delivery driver overheard two neighbors arguing about who had stolen the last pack of eggs from their shared grocery store. The delivery driver pretended not to listen but couldn’t help smiling when he saw the eggs in one neighbor’s shopping bag. The next day, everyone joked that maybe it was time for a community egg raffle at Circle K.
