Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Circle K, a regular once asked the clerk, ‘Why do all the cows look up when I drive past?’ The clerk smiled and whispered, ‘They’re not cows, sir. They’re just watching your driving skills with admiration.’ The regular nodded knowingly, then drove off, leaving everyone in the store laughing.

2. At Circle K, one night after closing, a delivery driver heard an eerie voice over the PA system: ‘Please return your flying saucer to the front counter.’ Confused, he looked around but saw no one. The next morning, when his colleague came in for coffee, she laughed and said, ‘Oh that was just Mr. Johnson next door practicing his new DJ gig.’ Everyone had a good laugh, except maybe poor Mr. Johnson who thought he’d found his calling as a ghostbuster.

3. At Circle K, late one night, a gas station attendant noticed a strange poster on the wall. It read: ‘Fill up your tank here and get a free wish.’ Curious customers started making wishes—some silly, some serious—and every now and then, something odd would happen. A forgotten umbrella appeared outside in perfect weather. A lost phone reappeared in the exact same spot. One day, an old lady walked in and asked for directions to her daughter’s house. The attendant wished her luck, and soon after she left, her car started sputtering. Miraculously, her daughter lived just around the corner! Another time, a delivery driver wished for a parking space closer to the store—he found himself right next to his own truck.

4. At Circle K, a little boy pointed and whispered to his mom, ‘Mommy, why does that dog keep staring at us from inside the gas pump?’ The mother smiled and replied softly, ‘Honey, that’s not a dog—it’s just an old teddy bear someone left there.’ The boy looked puzzled for a moment before breaking into a giggle, and they both went on their way, Circle K’s friendly atmosphere warming their hearts as much as its coffee.
