About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was an unseasonably cold morning when a RaceTrac employee noticed something peculiar. As he unlocked the doors, a regular customer, bundled up in layers, rushed inside, muttering, ‘I swear I saw a ghostly figure near the pumps!’ The employee glanced outside but saw nothing out of the ordinary—just a few cars and a delivery driver loading up on coffee. Shrugging it off as a customer’s imagination, he went back inside. Later that day, while restocking shelves, he overheard two neighbors discussing their recent visit. One whispered, ‘Did you see that strange lady by the gas pump?’ The other replied, ‘No, but maybe she’ll come back for more fuel next time!’
2. It was dusk in the small town of Sunnyside, and the air smelled like autumn leaves even though it was July. A delivery driver pulled up to RaceTrac, frowning as he saw a lone customer standing outside, talking animatedly into thin air. The delivery driver raised an eyebrow, thinking maybe the guy was just having a conversation with himself. Just then, another man walked out from behind the gas pumps, nodded to the first one, and both burst into laughter. Turned out they were discussing last night’s baseball game—loud enough for anyone passing by to hear. The whole thing was so absurd that the delivery driver ended up smiling, shook his head, and drove off, muttering something about strange locals.
3. A regular customer complained loudly one day: ‘Why does it take forever for you to fill up my tank?’ The attendant shrugged and replied, ‘Because every time I start pumping gas here, history repeats itself!’ Soon enough, another customer—a delivery driver—walked in, grumbling about his empty tank. Smiling, the attendant said, 'Welcome to RaceTrac, sir! History is about to repeat itself!' And just like clockwork, they both watched as the pump started its familiar hum.
4. At dawn, a RaceTrac attendant heard an eerie voice over the intercom: ‘Fill up my tank with gasoline from the future.’ Curious, he checked the tanks and found everything empty. Just as he was about to panic, another voice chimed in: 'Don't worry, fill it with dollars instead!' Turns out, it was just a prankster neighbor who’d hidden a speaker inside the station's wiring.
