About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Valero gas station late one night, an eerie voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Fill your tank and take two minutes for a prayer—God is watching.’ Regulars shrugged it off until the strange messages became daily occurrences. Finally, a delivery driver joked, ‘Maybe God wants us to pray for cheaper gas!’ Soon, everyone was laughing as they pulled up to Valero, filled their tanks, and said a quick prayer for lower prices. The messages stopped as suddenly as they started, leaving only good vibes and cheaper gas bills behind.

2. At Valero gas station in the early morning, a sleepy attendant heard a strange sound from the bathroom. ‘Sir,’ whispered a voice, ‘your tank’s almost empty.’ Curious, the attendant peeked inside and saw nobody. But then he noticed the toilet was flushed clean—too clean. Looking closer, he found a tiny handwritten note on the mirror: ‘Fill her up!’ Turns out, it was just an overly talkative tank gauge playing pranks on customers.

3. At Valero gas station, a regular shouted into the empty lot next door, ‘Hey, your dog’s stuck!’ Only no one was there. A delivery driver appeared out of nowhere and said, ‘Which dog? I didn’t see anything.’ Just then, an old neighbor walked by and whispered, ‘That’s because it’s a unicorn—everyone knows they’re invisible.’ Everyone laughed, and the regular went back inside with a smile.

4. At Valero gas station, a delivery driver asked curiously: "Do you ever hear voices coming from that old pump?" The attendant smiled knowingly and replied, ‘Only when it needs another tune-up.’ The delivery driver shook his head with a laugh, realizing he’d probably be hearing those jokes for years to come.
