About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when Circle K’s neon sign flickered softly, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the gas pump display. It read, ‘Fill up with luck today—$0.99 per gallon.’ Curious, he filled his tank and drove off. The next morning, everyone agreed it must be a mistake, but the price stayed the same until the tank ran dry. Word spread quickly around town, and soon every resident was stopping by Circle K for their daily dose of fortune. A neighbor joked that maybe they should start selling lottery tickets alongside gasoline. Before long, the store’s shelves were stocked not just with snacks but also with lucky charms and good-luck tokens. And so, Circle K became known as more than just a gas station—it was a place where people went to fill both their tanks and their hearts with hope.

2. At midnight, while filling up at Circle K, an old man whispered to himself: ‘I swear, every time I come here, that gas pump smiles back at me.’ Curious, a delivery driver asked him if he was seeing things. The old man leaned closer and whispered back, ‘No, it’s not my eyes—it’s just this damn pump always looks like it’s smiling right when I’m almost done.’ They both laughed, and as they drove off, the gas pump seemed to nod in agreement.

3. Late one afternoon, a young woman rushed into Circle K, frantically searching for her lost phone. As she scanned the shelves, she overheard two employees whispering about strange occurrences after dark. One of them mentioned seeing a shadowy figure near the gas pumps late last night. The other nodded mysteriously and added that their dog had started barking uncontrollably around closing time. Just then, an old man walked in, asking for directions to the nearest ATM. Everyone laughed nervously, realizing it was just another quiet evening at Circle K.

4. At dawn, when Circle K’s lights were the only ones on in town, a jogger passing by swore he saw someone whispering behind the counter. Suddenly, the voice changed tone and asked for a packet of cigarettes. The clerk, startled but curious, glanced around and found nobody there. Turns out it was just an early-morning prankster—a delivery driver who liked to scare the night-shift workers.
