About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was just another morning at Maverik, where a delivery driver pulled up with a truckload of coffee beans. As he unloaded crates, something odd caught his eye—a small, silver coin glinted from beneath one crate. Curious, he picked it up and noticed an inscription: ‘Finders keepers until noon.’ Smiling, the delivery driver popped open the coin and found only a tiny note inside: 'Free coffee for anyone who finds me!' He chuckled, poured himself a cup, and soon enough, word spread around town that Maverik served not just gas but also luck—if you knew where to look.
2. A regular was filling up his truck one afternoon when he noticed something strange. ‘Hey,’ he called out to the attendant, ‘why does everyone here seem to be leaving in a hurry?’ The attendant shrugged and smiled. ‘Oh, that’s just Mr. Smith—he always pays cash, never uses cards, and leaves as soon as he fills up.’ The regular laughed, shook his head, and drove off. To this day, nobody knows why Mr. Smith is such a rush, but they’ve learned to expect him every Wednesday afternoon.
3. At dusk, a little boy approached Maverik, drawn by the bright neon sign. As he stepped inside, his eyes widened at the sight of a gas pump that seemed to pulse in time with the music playing softly in the background. As the boy reached for the handle, an old man behind the counter smiled and said, ‘Careful now, sonny, that’s not just any pump—it’s our special dancing one!’ The boy giggled and asked if he could dance too. The attendant winked and replied, ‘Next time you fill up, kid.’ With that, the boy skipped outside, leaving behind only the sound of laughter and the rhythmic hum of the glowing pump.
4. One day, while pumping gas at Maverik, a local teenager asked his friend, ‘I wonder if they sell gasoline by the smell?’ His friend replied, ‘Dude, it’s just gas!’ They both laughed, and as the older one was paying, he said, ‘Next time I’ll buy you a sniff test.’ The cashier smiled and shook his head, thinking, ‘These kids are always full of surprises.’
