About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At nightfall, a delivery driver pulled up to the pumps of the old gas station, ‘76,’ and noticed an eerie sign above the cash register: ‘Fill Up Before Midnight or Pay Twice.’ Curious, he filled his tank—and when dawn broke, so did everyone else’s bills. As days passed, more drivers started filling up early, causing the owner to post another sign: ‘Pay Twice After Midnight!’ Soon enough, everyone in town was rushing to fill their tanks before bedtime. Finally, one morning, a sleepy neighbor asked, ‘Why don’t you just charge normal prices?’ The owner shrugged, smiling, ‘Because then no one would come here anymore!’
2. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, an early bird arrived at the pumps of ‘76.’ He noticed something peculiar—every morning, exactly at sunrise, a fresh bouquet appeared on the counter. One day, a delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Who’s leaving these flowers?’ No one knew. Months passed until finally, someone left a note: “To the kind soul at 76—a grateful neighborhood.” The next morning, the bouquet was replaced with a handwritten sign reading, “Free coffee for early birds!”
3. A curious delivery driver noticed something unusual one morning while filling up at the pumps. Among the usual bottles and boxes in the back of his truck lay a strange, dusty object—a small, wooden carving of a cowboy on horseback. The driver picked it up curiously, wondering how it got there. Later that day, as he was unloading his truck, a neighbor stopped by and asked if he’d seen her lost toy cowboy. Turns out, it had been missing for weeks from her grandkid’s room. The driver grinned, thinking maybe the universe just likes good jokes.
4. One foggy morning, a delivery driver stopped for fuel and noticed something odd on the pump handle—a small, dusty bottle labeled ‘Miracle Cleanser.’ Curious, he wiped it off and found no instructions or markings. He squirted some onto his hand and watched in amazement as dirt and grime simply melted away. Thinking quickly, he filled up his tank and rushed back home, cleaning everything in sight. His wife, finding her kitchen sparkling clean, asked, 'What miracle product did you use?' He grinned sheepishly, replying, 'Just a little something from the gas station.'
