Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another humdrum day at Circle K car wash. A delivery driver pulled up in his truck, hopped out, and started loading supplies into the back. Suddenly, one of the brushes on the rotating arm seemed to take on a life of its own. The brush suddenly twirled around like a dervish, leaving everyone frozen in shock. Then, with a loud cackle, it stopped and returned to its usual place. The delivery driver shook his head and muttered, ‘Must be that old wind from last night.’ Everyone laughed, relieved, and went back to work—except for one guy who decided to get his car washed somewhere else.

2. A regular pulled up to the Circle K one morning and asked the attendant, ‘Hey, why does my car always look cleaner after it rains than after you wash it here?’ The attendant scratched his head and replied, 'Well, sir, maybe your car knows how much water really cares for it!' A delivery driver overheard and laughed so hard he almost spilled his coffee. The regular shook his head and drove off, muttering something about talking cars.

3. A delivery driver was unloading boxes from his truck when he noticed something strange. The Circle K sign seemed to waver slightly in the breeze, as if it were whispering secrets to passersby. Curious, he approached and saw that one of the letters had come loose, spelling out ‘Circl eK’ instead of ‘Circle K’. A nearby neighbor overheard him muttering and offered a friendly suggestion: ‘Maybe you should just drive around the block once or twice—might fix itself!’

4. A little boy walked into the Circle K car wash, staring wide-eyed as the soap bubbles swirled around in the air. The attendant smiled and asked if everything was okay. ‘They’re dancing!’ the boy exclaimed, pointing excitedly. The attendant laughed gently. 'They are indeed,' he said, patting the boy’s head. A delivery driver passing by overheard and joined in, “Yep, and they sing too!” Soon, everyone was smiling, watching those soapy bubbles dance like never before.
