About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, as a delivery driver pulled up to Circle K for a quick fill-up, he swore he heard someone whispering from inside the gas station's empty lot. Curious, he glanced around but saw nothing but shadows and an old abandoned truck. The next morning, the truck was gone—and so were the whispers. That same week, a neighborhood kid noticed that the gas pump prices had mysteriously dropped overnight. Turned out, it was just the station manager playing a prank—he’d filled the tank with water instead of gas. When the delivery driver returned later that day, he found himself laughing along with everyone else when he realized what happened.

2. Late one night, as a delivery driver pulled up to Circle K for a break, he noticed an old man standing outside the store, muttering something under his breath. The driver thought little of it until the next morning when everyone in town started talking about how the old man had predicted exactly what would happen that day. That evening, as the delivery driver approached the store again, he heard the old man say, ‘Today someone will forget their phone here.’ And sure enough, a few minutes later, a neighbor walked in frantically searching for their lost device. Everyone laughed, realizing the old man’s predictions were just good ol’ fashioned luck—and maybe a bit of fun.}

3. Late one night, as a delivery driver pulled up to Circle K for gas, he noticed an old man whispering into his empty coffee cup. ‘I told you,’ said the man, ‘this is where they hide the secret ingredient.’ The delivery driver laughed and shook his head, thinking it was just another late-night tale. But when he filled up, something strange happened—he could swear he tasted chocolate in his coffee too. The next morning, everyone in town knew the secret: Circle K’s gas had been mixed with mocha syrup all along.

4. Late one night, as a delivery driver pulled up to Circle K for gas, he noticed something strange on the parking lot. Among the usual trash and empty bottles lay an old, dusty kite. Curious, he picked it up—and found it had a note attached with a childish scribble: ‘Founder of Circle K, please return.’ The delivery driver chuckled, thinking maybe some kid lost their toy while playing nearby. He drove off, but later that evening, his little daughter pointed out another note stuck to the windshield—this time, written in grown-up handwriting: 'Founder of Circle K thanks you!' The driver smiled, realizing someone was having fun with him, and decided to keep both notes as reminders that even mundane moments can be full of surprises.
