About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At QuikTrip one morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd—a small dog kept staring intently at the gas pump display as if it were trying to understand the prices. Nobody else seemed to notice. The delivery driver chuckled and leaned down, whispering, ‘Hey little guy, you’re smarter than most humans here!’ The dog wagged its tail and licked his hand before bounding off into the parking lot. Later that day, a regular customer asked the clerk if they’d seen a strange dog hanging around—only to realize it was their neighbor’s pet, who had finally found a place where he could easily see the gas prices.
2. At QuikTrip late one night, an employee heard a strange announcement over the PA: ‘If you’ve seen a flying saucer parked in our parking lot, please inform management.’ The next morning, no saucers were found, but a delivery driver reported seeing a UFO-shaped donut on the counter. A manager joked, ‘Maybe it’s our new secret menu item!’ The story spread quickly among locals, and ever since then, whenever someone spots something unusual, they whisper, “It must be another QuikTrip encounter.”
3. At QuikTrip early in the morning, a gas station attendant adjusted the sign to read ‘Open’—only for it to flip back to ‘Closed.’ He shrugged and went inside, but every few minutes, the sign flipped again, as if someone were playing a prank from beyond. Finally, an old man walked up and said, 'Boy, that sign's been playing tricks on you long enough!' He reached over, gave the sign a little pat, and whispered something. The sign settled down ever since. Nobody knows what he said, but everyone around here calls him just ‘the guy who fixed the sign.’
4. At QuikTrip one afternoon, a customer exclaimed, ‘Hey, look—gas prices just changed to exactly my age!’ Everyone turned to see if it was true. A nearby delivery driver overheard and joked, ‘Wow, lucky guy! My gas price used to be that when I was his age too.’ Soon everyone started checking their pumps curiously. A regular walked up and asked, ‘So what do we do now? Wait until our gas matches our weight or something?’ They all laughed, realizing it was just another random coincidence, but left with smiles on their faces.
