About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Speedway gas station, something odd began happening one foggy morning when a voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Attention, everyone—your tank is full.’ The announcement repeated itself every hour on the dot, no matter who was filling up. One day, an elderly neighbor pulled up and asked curiously, 'Why does it always say my tank’s full?' A friendly attendant shrugged and replied, 'Who knows, sir? Maybe your car just loves free gas!' From then on, whenever anyone complained, they’d smile and say, 'Guess your car’s in love with Speedway!'

2. At Speedway gas station, one night a strange humming sound started coming from the pumps, drawing curious glances from a delivery driver who pulled in for fuel. The delivery driver leaned closer, trying to figure out what it was. Suddenly, an old man walking his dog approached and said, ‘That’s just my poodle, he loves sitting on those pumps when it’s cool outside.’ Everyone laughed, realizing it wasn’t some mysterious phenomenon but just a friendly canine with good taste in air conditioning.

3. At Speedway gas station, one stormy afternoon, a delivery driver noticed an unusual glow inside the pump's LED screen. Curious, he leaned closer and saw that the numbers on the display were slowly counting down from 99.99 dollars—obviously some kind of glitch. The delivery driver laughed it off, paid for his gas, and left. But every time he filled up afterward, he’d check the price first. Turns out, Speedway had a secret: their pumps always charged exactly ninety-nine cents less than everyone else’s.

4. At Speedway gas station, one chilly midnight, a trucker filling up his tank heard soft laughter echoing through the empty lot. Curious, he looked around but saw no one. Then, from behind him, came another giggle—this time louder and closer. Startled, he spun around just in time to see a small shadowy figure dart into an old abandoned trailer nearby. Shrugging it off as a prank, he finished pumping gas and drove away, only to hear that same mysterious laughter following him down the highway.
