About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another quiet night at Kum & Go when a delivery driver pulled up with an unusual request. He asked the clerk if he could leave a package in the back room for ‘Mr. Johnson,’ even though no one named Mr. Johnson worked there. The next morning, as employees were setting up, they found a small card on the package: 'Thanks for your help last night, Mr. Johnson!' Turned out it was just a friendly neighborhood prankster who liked to pull practical jokes on late-night workers.

2. At dawn, when most gas stations are empty and silent, a delivery driver pulled up to Kum & Go with an unusual cargo. The sky was just beginning to lighten as he unloaded crates marked ‘Top Secret’. Curious, one of the clerks approached the crate and found it contained nothing but bags of freshly baked donuts. 'Morning treat for everyone,' chuckled the delivery driver. Since then, every morning at sunrise, locals gather at Kum & Go for free donuts—an unexpected perk of visiting the mysterious station.

3. A little boy ran into Kum & Go one morning, wide-eyed and pointing towards the door. His mother looked up from her coffee, curious but not alarmed—until she saw the shadowy figure standing outside, its reflection distorted in the glass. The mom gently took her son’s hand and whispered, ‘It’s just a big shadow, honey.’ They both laughed as they walked out, only to realize that the shadow had been cast by an oversized billboard across the street. The little boy turned around with a smile and said, ‘Mom, next time I’ll tell you if it’s really something!’

4. At closing time, an employee was locking up Kum & Go when he heard a soft thud behind him. Turning around, he saw a regular slowly approaching with a full shopping basket, muttering something about ‘just one more thing.’ The clerk smiled and asked, "Sir, I thought you had everything?" The man looked down, sheepishly emptying his basket onto the counter. 'Oh,' he said, 'I just needed to grab some marshmallows for s’mores tonight.' With that, he paid, grabbed his treats, and left, leaving the clerk laughing softly.
