About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while filling up at Exxon, a regular noticed something odd in the parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper and twine. No sign or label marked its contents. Curious, the regular picked it up and took it inside. The clerk shrugged, saying it was probably just a delivery. Later that day, everyone in town received identical boxes—all filled with free Exxon coffee mugs. Turned out, someone had mistakenly labeled an entire shipment as ‘fuel’ instead of merchandise.

2. One day, while pumping gas at Exxon, a delivery driver asked an unusual question aloud: ‘Why does my car always start singing “Imagine” when I fill it up here?’ The station attendant shrugged and replied, 'Maybe your car likes our fuel so much that it sings in joy!' The delivery driver shook his head with a smile, thinking maybe it was just another quirk of Exxon.

3. It was a chilly autumn morning when a regular pulled into the Exxon station for his daily fill-up. As he pumped gas, he noticed an old man shivering on the curb across the street. The regular waved him over curiously. The old man gratefully accepted the offer and followed the regular inside. Turns out, he was just waiting for his grandson’s delivery truck. They ended up chatting amiably while sipping coffee until a young delivery driver arrived with a big smile—turning out to be the old man’s long-lost son. It was one of those quirky coincidences that only happen in small-town America.

4. While pumping gas at Exxon, a little boy pointed excitedly and whispered to his mom, ‘Look, Mommy, it’s talking!’ The mother smiled and leaned down, whispering back, ‘No, honey, it’s just the pump saying “Thank you” in its own special way.’ The boy looked puzzled for a moment before breaking into a wide smile, satisfied with her explanation.
