About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the Shell station's neon sign dimmed down, a regular noticed something odd. Every Tuesday, right after closing, an eerie humming sound would come from behind the pumps. Curious, the regular approached cautiously and found nothing but a small radio left behind—a gift from the previous owner’s granddaughter. Turns out, it was just her favorite old tune playing on repeat.

2. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the Shell gas station and found an old, dusty ukulele in the parking lot. He picked it up, curious, and soon discovered that whenever he strummed its strings, the price of gas dropped by five cents per gallon. Word quickly spread through town, and soon everyone was stopping by Shell for their daily strum. The delivery driver became something of a local hero—until one day his wife asked why they never seemed to fill up the car anymore. Turns out, their tank was always magically half full now.

3. At dawn, while filling up his car, a delivery driver noticed an old coin rolling out from under the Shell pump. Picking it up, he exclaimed, ‘Finally, my lucky penny!’ As he bent down, another coin popped out and bounced off his cap, landing in his pocket with a little jingle. Smiling broadly, he looked around, expecting someone to claim them—only to see that everyone else was too busy admiring their own good fortune. That’s when he realized: maybe these weren’t just any coins—he might be witnessing the birth of a new local legend.

4. At dawn, while filling up his car, a delivery driver noticed an old coin stuck in the nozzle. ‘What’s this doing here?’ he muttered, curious but not too concerned. Curious, he picked it up and examined it—an ordinary-looking penny from years ago. Suddenly, another coin popped out, followed by yet another one. Before long, coins were falling like rain from the nozzle. The delivery driver laughed, thinking, 'Who knew Shell had such a generous policy?' He drove off, leaving behind a small pile of change for the next customer.
