About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Valero, late one night, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the back of his truck—a mysterious package wrapped in brown paper and sealed with twine. Nobody claimed it, and no one seemed to know its origin. Curious, he opened it to find… a bag of groceries? A note inside read: ‘Forgot these at home.’ The next day, everyone in town received similar packages from Valero—free groceries for anyone who needed them.’

2. At Valero, an old man approached the counter and asked for directions to ‘the gas station that’s not here.’ The clerk smiled and replied, ‘Sir, you’re already standing right next to it!’ A delivery driver pulled up, confused. He looked around and asked the clerk, ‘I thought I was supposed to deliver here?’ Clerk grinned: ‘You are, pal—you’re just in the wrong Valero!’

3. At Valero, a regular filling up his truck noticed a strange humming sound coming from the pumps. Everyone else seemed oblivious, but he couldn’t shake the feeling it wasn’t just his imagination. He asked another customer if they heard anything, and got a blank stare in return. Finally, a delivery driver mentioned that yeah, he’d heard it too—just thought it was the new pump design. They all laughed it off as an urban legend of Valero, and drove away, their trucks full—and their curiosity satisfied.

4. At Valero, a neighbor stopped by early morning to fill up his car. As he pumped gas, he heard a voice whispering from inside the station’s office. Curious, he peered inside and saw only an old cash register blinking eerily in the dim light. ‘Fill it up,’ said the empty room. The neighbor laughed nervously, finished pumping gas, and drove off, never mentioning it again—until his wife asked why he was smiling so broadly that morning.
