A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Sunoco station late one night, a delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Why does that old lady always wave at me from her porch?’ The attendant shrugged and replied with a smile, ‘She’s just waving hello, man—she lives there.’ The driver shook his head, scratching his chin thoughtfully. Over time, he started waving back, and soon enough, they were having impromptu conversations every evening. Turns out, she was just lonely and enjoyed chatting with someone new.

2. At Sunoco station early morning, a delivery driver muttered under his breath, ‘Who left their coffee cup here?’ Only no one did. Suddenly, an old man appeared from behind the counter and said, ‘That’s my lucky mug! I always win the lottery when I drink out of it.’ The delivery driver shook his head with a smile, picked up the mug, and whispered, ‘Next time, leave a note!’

3. At Sunoco station in broad daylight, an employee noticed something odd on the counter—a small bag of what looked like fresh popcorn, steaming hot and smelling irresistibly buttered. The employee picked it up curiously but then realized—someone must’ve accidentally left it there during a break. Smiling, she popped some into her mouth, finding it perfectly salted and delicious. From that day on, whenever someone mentioned ‘free movie theater snacks,’ everyone laughed and said, ‘Oh, you mean Sunoco?’

4. At Sunoco station before dawn, a sleepy clerk heard someone whispering from the parking lot. Peering outside, they saw only their own reflection in the gas pump's wet glass. Curious, the clerk unlocked the door and approached the pump. Just as they reached for the handle, a deep voice growled behind them, ‘Fill her up!’ Turning around, they found an old man on his bicycle, grinning sheepishly. ‘Oh,’ he said, scratching his head. ‘Didn’t mean to scare you.’
