Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Circle K, a regular noticed something odd one morning. Every time he filled up his truck, the cashier’s parrot would start squawking in perfect rhythm with the pump clicks. One day, a delivery driver stopped by and asked if he could borrow the parrot for his route. The next morning, everyone heard the same rhythmic squawks coming from across town—until someone realized it was just the mailman humming along to his walkie-talkie.

2. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Circle K for a quick coffee break. As he stepped inside, he noticed an old man whispering into his hat while waiting in line. The delivery driver smiled and nodded politely, thinking it was just another quirky local character. Later that day, as he drove through town, he passed an elderly gentleman watering his garden. The old man waved cheerfully, still holding his hat close to his chest. ‘That’s him!’ thought the driver with a laugh. Turns out, everyone in town knew the quiet guy who whispered secrets into his hat—his name was Mr. Jenkins, and he was simply saying good wishes to passersby.’

3. One day at Circle K, an unusual package appeared in the delivery area. A curious employee picked it up and found that it contained nothing but an old, crumpled note reading: 'Fill my tank.' The employee shrugged and filled the tank with a smile, thinking it was some prankster’s joke. Later that evening, as he was closing up, an elderly gentleman walked in and asked for directions. ‘I’m lost,’ he said, pointing to his nearly empty gas gauge. The employee burst out laughing, realizing the note had been meant for him all along.

4. At dawn, when Circle K is usually empty, a strange figure started appearing near the gas pumps. It wore a long trench coat and never said a word. One morning, a regular customer asked the figure for his usual coffee. The mysterious man nodded and vanished into thin air with just a cup of Joe. Since then, everyone knows that if you order exactly three creams and two sugars, he’ll appear again—just don’t expect him to stay longer than it takes to finish your drink.
