About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another quiet night at Circle K when a delivery driver noticed something odd. As he unloaded crates of soda into the cooler, he kept hearing whispers coming from inside one box. Curious, he opened it slowly—only to find a small talking parrot that kept repeating ‘Gotta go, gotta go, gotta buy gas here!’ The delivery driver laughed so hard he almost dropped his clipboard. From then on, customers joked that Circle K had its very own feathered spokesman.

2. It was an unusually foggy morning at Circle K when a delivery driver noticed something odd: every time he approached the gas pumps, his coffee cup started steaming differently depending on which pump he used. Curious, he mentioned it to a regular customer who happened to be a retired chemist. Together they tested each pump and discovered that the coffee’s reaction depended on the unique blend of gasoline fumes in the tank. From then on, Circle K became known for its ‘specialty’ coffee—each pump brewed a different flavor based on the day’s batch!

3. It was a typical afternoon at Circle K when a delivery driver pulled up with a truckload of snacks. As he unloaded boxes, he overheard two neighbors debating which flavor of chips was truly the best. Finally, an older gentleman approached and said, ‘You kids don’t know what you’re talking about—when I was your age, it was Doritos that ruled!’ The delivery driver smiled, shook his head, and thought to himself, ‘Next time I’ll just grab some chips myself before anyone decides for me.’

4. It was a typical morning at Circle K when a delivery driver pulled up with a truckload of coffee. As he was unloading, he overheard a regular whispering into his phone: ‘I’ll meet you here in ten minutes—yes, that Circle K.’ The delivery driver raised an eyebrow but kept working. Ten minutes later, an old neighbor walked in, smiling sheepishly. 'Just needed some early-morning caffeine,' he muttered, buying a cup and leaving without another word. The regular laughed softly, shaking his head, and everyone went back to their routine—except now they all wondered what else was happening right under their noses.
