About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Kum & Go one morning, a regular noticed something odd—an old man kept walking into the store without paying for coffee. Each time he left, his dog would bark excitedly and run after him. The cashier smiled and shrugged it off as just another day in small-town America. Finally, one day the old man forgot his wallet. As he walked out, the cashier called after him: ‘Sir, you didn’t pay!’ The old man turned around with a smile, handed his dog a treat, and said, “He always pays in kisses.” Everyone laughed, including the cashier.

2. At Kum & Go late one night, an employee heard a strange noise coming from the back room. Curious, he peeked inside—and found a delivery driver frantically rearranging the entire stock of energy drinks. Curiously, the employee asked what was going on. The driver replied, ‘Your caffeine levels were too low!’ Turns out, he thought it was his duty to ensure every Kum & Go had enough energy for its customers. Everyone laughed, and the driver left with a box of donuts as thanks.

3. At Kum & Go, a delivery driver once found an unusual item in the parking lot—a tiny, perfectly folded origami crane with no note attached. Curious, the driver took it inside and showed it to a manager. Turned out the origami was made by a local elementary school kid who thought it would bring good luck to everyone passing by. Since then, it's become a fun tradition—every now and then someone leaves a little paper bird somewhere on the property, and everyone gets a kick out of finding them.

4. At Kum & Go one stormy afternoon, a customer asked the clerk, ‘Do you sell lightning rods?’ The clerk looked puzzled for a moment and then replied, 'No sir, we don't sell lightning rods.' The customer nodded thoughtfully and said, 'Oh well, I was just checking. By the way, do you have any coffee?' The clerk smiled and pointed towards the counter, 'Of course we do!' And so, amidst the thunderstorm, two strangers shared a cup of coffee, bonding over their mutual love for caffeine more than electrical storms.
