About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another quiet morning at Shell gas station when a delivery driver pulled up with an unusual request. He asked the attendant if he could fill his tank and then… disappear for a while. The attendant raised an eyebrow but nodded, filling the truck’s tank without a word. A few minutes later, the driver emerged from behind the pump, paid quickly, and vanished into thin air—literally. As he walked away, he waved cheerfully, leaving everyone staring in amazement. Since then, locals joke that Shell has a secret portal to another dimension, accessible only through its pumps.

2. At dawn, as usual, Shell gas station opened its doors for business. But today something odd happened—an elderly gentleman approached the counter holding a bag full of donuts and a megaphone. ‘Good morning, everyone!’ he shouted into the megaphone, handing over the bag with a smile. ‘These are on the house, courtesy of Shell!’ The employees exchanged puzzled looks until they saw the dozen smiling faces of their neighbors standing behind him. Turns out, it was just another day in paradise—a regular delivering free donuts to his favorite gas station.

3. At dawn, as usual, Shell gas station opened its doors for business. But today something strange happened right before the eyes of a nearby child. A delivery driver approached the pump with a box under his arm, and when he bent down to attach the hose, his shadow briefly stretched across the ground like a giant monster. The kid watched wide-eyed until the driver straightened up, and his shadow returned to normal size. With a quick glance around, he casually waved off any possible spectators and continued his work. Later that day, when the same child told their parents what they’d seen, everyone agreed it must’ve been just another one of those morning mirages—except maybe the delivery driver’s wife, who teased him gently about being ‘too tall for his own good.’

4. At dawn, as usual, Shell gas station opened its doors for business. But today, among the usual assortment of snacks and drinks on the counter, there was an unexpected addition—a small, handwritten sign that read ‘Free Oil Change if You Can Solve This Puzzle.’ A delivery driver named Alex took up the challenge with a smile. After fifteen minutes of puzzling over cryptic clues, he triumphantly announced, 'I’ve solved it!' The attendant looked skeptical but agreed to check. To everyone’s surprise, including Alex’s own, the oil change machine had been out of order for months. Moral of the story? Sometimes solving riddles leads to free oil changes—if you're lucky enough.
