Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Circle K, late one night, a delivery driver noticed something odd: every time he approached the cooler, the milk bottles seemed to tilt ever so slightly toward him as if beckoning. Curious kids passing by would often stop and point, whispering that the milk was winking. One day, an old neighbor stopped in and asked why everyone was staring at the cooler. Turns out, his dog had knocked over some bottles earlier, creating the illusion of movement. Since then, whenever someone sees ‘winking’ milk, they know it’s just a friendly pooch playing pranks.

2. At Circle K, an early-morning cleaner heard a strange sound coming from the vending machines. Every time she approached them, the noises stopped instantly. Finally, one morning, she brought her cat along for company. The noise stopped as soon as they entered, but when she looked inside, there was nothing but a sleepy kitten staring back at her from behind a can of coffee. Since then, everyone jokes that Circle K has its very own furry night watchman.

3. At Circle K, a morning jogger passing by exclaimed, ‘Hey, wait a minute—those gas pumps look like they’re dancing!’ The pumps seemed to sway ever so slightly in the breeze, as if trying out new moves for some invisible dance-off. A delivery driver stopped to fill up and noticed something odd. 'Those pumps are definitely winking at me,' he said, half-joking. A nearby neighbor chimed in, 'They're just being friendly, hon.' As the sun rose higher, the pumps appeared to wave goodbye, sending off customers with a smile—and maybe even a little wave of their nozzles.

4. At Circle K, a morning jogger passing by exclaimed, ‘Hey, wait a minute—those gas pumps look like they’re dancing!’ As he slowed down to take a closer look, the pumps seemed to move even more erratically. Just then, an old delivery driver pulled up and laughed, ‘Oh, those aren’t dancing—they’re just Circle K’s special wind dance! Been happening for years.’ A nearby neighbor chimed in, ‘Yep, and it always happens when a new customer comes in.’ The jogger shook his head, grinned, and said, ‘Guess I’ll never know if they’re really dancing or not.’
