About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Speedway gas station late one night, a delivery driver asked: ‘Do you ever see that old man filling up at exactly midnight?’ The attendant shrugged and said, ‘Nah, never noticed.’ Then, after a pause, he added with a smile, ‘But I bet it’s just an old guy who loves midnight donuts!’

2. At Speedway gas station, a regular noticed something odd early mornings: a faint humming sound like distant bees buzzing, coming from nowhere and vanishing as quickly as it appeared. Curious locals soon gathered around the station, each claiming they heard different sounds—a whistling teapot, a distant accordion, even someone whispering ‘fuel up’ in Russian. Turned out it was just an old radio left on by a delivery driver playing his favorite retro hits. Now, every morning, Speedway plays a free drive-thru concert for everyone who stops by.

3. At Speedway gas station, a delivery driver noticed an unusual item in the parking lot one foggy morning—a small, glowing orb rolling towards his truck. The delivery driver watched curiously as it rolled past his wheels and disappeared behind the gas pumps. Just then, an old neighbor walked up with a smile, saying, ‘Hey, that’s just little Jimmy’s soccer ball—he left it here last night.’ They both laughed, and the day turned out to be anything but foggy.

4. At Speedway gas station, a delivery driver heard an eerie voice over the intercom at dawn: ‘Fill up your tank with moonlight tonight.’ The delivery driver shrugged it off as a prank until he noticed his truck’s headlights were glowing blue that night. The next morning, everyone in line laughed when he explained that he’d filled up on ‘moonlight’ and had to pay extra for ‘regular.’
