A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Weigel’s gas station, everyone noticed something strange one morning. A regular asked aloud, ‘Why is that old truck always filling up with gasoline… while parked?’ A delivery driver shrugged, ‘Maybe it’s a time machine—every time I see it, it’s half-empty!’ Soon, locals started calling it “The Gasoline Time Traveler.” One morning, an elderly neighbor stopped by and said, ‘I’ve been here since dawn, but that truck still hasn’t left yet.’ Everyone laughed, realizing it was just an old truck with a never-quit tank.

2. At Weigel’s gas station, an old delivery driver pulled up in his truck one afternoon. His little terrier jumped out and raced towards the pumps, sniffing intently at the nozzle of another car. The owner of that vehicle watched curiously as the dog paused, tilted its head, then began licking the nozzle with great enthusiasm. The dog’s owner approached, laughing. ‘Hey, buddy,’ he said, patting the animal gently on the head. The little terrier looked up adoringly, still lapping away. A nearby neighbor chimed in, ‘Guess your pooch found a new hobby!’ And so it turned out—Weigel’s became known for the friendly canine who’d rather clean car nozzles than fetch sticks.

3. At Weigel’s gas station, a delivery driver pulled up in his truck one afternoon and announced loudly, ‘I’ve just delivered more gasoline than coffee today!’ The attendant smiled wryly and replied, ‘That’s because you always deliver your goods right here!’ Just then, an old neighbor walked in and asked for directions to the local café. The delivery driver shook his head and muttered under his breath, ‘First coffee, now maps—maybe next time I’ll deliver some donuts too.’

4. At Weigel’s gas station, a delivery driver pulled up in his truck one night. The pump clicked off after filling his tank, but then the engine started running on its own. Everyone watched as the truck drove itself slowly out of the lot and onto the highway. The truck drove for several miles before stopping at a neighbor’s house. A sleepy man answered the door and asked, ‘What do you want?’ The truck replied, ‘Just needed some gas for my evening drive.’ Everyone burst into laughter, realizing it was just an overactive fuel pump playing tricks again.
