About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Speedway gas station, late one night, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in old newspapers and tied with twine. Curious but cautious, he left it be, only to see it disappear into thin air the next morning. A few days later, an elderly neighbor stopped by, carrying a similar package. ‘Just delivering some old stuff,’ she said with a smile. The delivery driver exchanged knowing glances with others at Speedway—maybe they were all part of a secret recycling club?
2. At Speedway gas station, an early-morning attendant yawned and glanced outside. ‘Hey,’ he called out, ‘you’re not supposed to park there!’ But the car was empty—just a lone coffee cup on the dashboard. Suddenly, from behind the wheel came a sleepy voice: 'Morning, bud! Thought I'd grab some shuteye while you filled up.' The attendant blinked, then burst into laughter. Turns out, it was just a delivery driver catching forty winks in his truck.
3. At Speedway gas station, on a chilly morning before dawn, a sleepy clerk heard someone whispering from the bathroom. Curious, the clerk peeked inside and saw only steam from the heater. But then, out of nowhere, came a deep voice: ‘Fill ’er up, sonny!’ Startled, the clerk nearly dropped his pen. Turns out it was just an early-morning radio commercial. The rest of that day, whenever anyone asked for gas, he’d joke, ‘Fill ’er up, sir!’
4. At Speedway gas station, on a stormy midnight, a lone attendant checked the pumps for the umpteenth time when a strange reflection caught his eye. The reflection turned out to be an old hat dangling from the ceiling fan. As he reached up to grab it, a regular pulled in and asked, ‘Hey, do you always dance around like that while working?’ The attendant just grinned and replied, ‘Only when I see customers coming.’
