About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as a regular pulled up to fill his tank, he heard an unexpected announcement over BP’s intercom: ‘Attention, everyone—we’ve just discovered that our gas can cure hiccups.’ Curious drivers lined up for a sip, and soon enough, no one could stop laughing. A delivery driver, impatiently waiting in line, finally asked if it was just hiccup gas or also good for traffic jams. The laughter spread like wildfire, and before long, every car had its own unique reason to pull into BP's station. That day, BP became known not just for fuel but for making people smile.

2. A delivery driver pulled up to BP one afternoon, frowning over his manifest. Suddenly, the gas pump clicked off mid-fill and announced in a robotic voice: ‘Tank full—please tip generously.’ The delivery driver looked around, confused, then reached into his truck for some change. He dropped a quarter into the slot, but the pump remained stubbornly silent. Finally, he shrugged and drove away, muttering something about robots not understanding tipping culture. A few minutes later, an elderly gentleman walking by noticed the still-open pump and grinned. 'Nice try,' he said, shaking his head. 'But next time, leave a real tip!'

3. One day, while filling up at BP, a regular noticed something odd on the gas pump display: ‘If you’re reading this, we’re out of gas.’ A delivery driver happened to glance at it too and laughed, thinking it was some kind of prank. He quickly filled his truck, started driving off—and then realized he hadn’t paid for anything yet! The regular shook his head and said, 'Welcome to BP—we’ll always find a way to make you smile!'

4. While pumping gas one evening, a neighbor exclaimed, ‘I thought I saw Bigfoot walking out there!’ The attendant just smiled and nodded, used to such tales. Another day, another customer asked if they could use the bathroom. As he left, the attendant overheard him muttering, ‘Finally found that Yeti everyone’s talking about!’ Turns out, it was just an old man with a beard and a hat.
