About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Riverboat Car Wash and asked the attendant, ‘Do you ever see ghosts here?’ The guy looked puzzled but replied, ‘Not really, why do you ask?’ The attendant shrugged, thinking it was just another delivery driver’s story. Later that day, an old neighbor walked in and said, 'Hey, did you know they filmed a horror movie here last year?' The attendant laughed and replied, 'No way!' The neighbor grinned, 'Yup, I saw the poster—it’s called "Sprayed Awake".' They both burst out laughing, realizing that sometimes even car washes can be more exciting than they seem.

2. One day, an old man walked into Riverboat Car Wash with a strange smile on his face. As he approached the cashier counter, he carefully placed something wrapped in newspaper on the table. ‘Just leave it here,’ he whispered, then vanished before anyone could ask questions. Later that evening, one of the workers noticed that the bundle had started playing old jazz tunes. Turned out it was just an ancient record player, left behind by the mysterious old man. Since then, whenever customers come during sunset, they can hear soft music from somewhere deep inside the car wash—adding a touch of whimsy and charm to their cleaning experience.

3. At dawn, when most car washes were quiet, a delivery driver pulled up to Riverboat Car Wash. As he stepped out of his truck, he noticed something odd: the water jets seemed to be forming shapes in the air—like tiny boats gently sailing across the sky. Curious, the driver watched as one ‘boat’ drifted towards him, stopping right above his head. Startled, he ducked just in time—it turned out to be nothing more than a soap bubble! Turns out, an old man next door had been blowing bubbles into the water jets for years, making it look like magic. The delivery driver shook his head and smiled, thinking that maybe some things are better left mysterious.

4. At dawn, when most car washes were quiet, a delivery driver pulled up to Riverboat Car Wash. As he stepped out of his truck, he noticed something odd on the ground—a small wooden box wrapped in old newspaper. He opened it carefully and found inside an old keychain with a riverboat charm. Smiling, he thought maybe it was just someone’s lost keepsake. Later that day, while washing cars, he overheard two neighbors discussing their new tradition—leaving little gifts for the anonymous kind soul who brought joy to their morning commute.
