About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Maverik, a regular yelled one morning: ‘I’m never leaving here without that ghost!’ Employees just laughed it off—until they started seeing him too. Then one night, a delivery driver reported seeing an old man waving from behind the counter. Everyone rushed over—and found only a dusty photo of Maverik’s original owner smiling back at them. Turns out, everyone had been talking to a friendly spirit who’d watched over the place for decades.

2. At Maverik, a delivery driver once complained, ‘Why does my truck always run out of gas right next to full tanks?’ Then one day, an old neighbor stopped by and said, ‘Son, it’s not the gas that runs out—your truck just likes to pull pranks on you!’ And from then on, whenever anyone asked why he was always low on gas near a full tank, he’d wink and say, ‘Must be Maverik’s secret fuel-saving technology.’

3. A neighbor stopped by one afternoon and asked the attendant, ‘Do you ever see those strange lights around your pumps?’ The attendant shrugged and replied, ‘Nope, just customers filling up.’ A few days later, a delivery driver pulled in and chimed in, ‘And do you ever notice how some of them leave without even stopping their engines?’ The attendant grinned and said, ‘Only when they’re paying with cash.’

4. At Maverik, a delivery driver noticed something unusual in the parking lot one day. As he approached his truck, he saw an old, rusty toolbox left behind—complete with a note scribbled on its side: ‘Take me home.’ The delivery driver chuckled and picked up the toolbox, thinking it was some prank. Later that night, while unpacking his truck, he found a half-eaten sandwich wrapped inside—a note read: 'Thanks for the ride!'
