About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when QuikTrip’s lights flickered on, a voice crackled over the intercom: ‘If you see a unicorn in the parking lot, it’s not what you think.’ Employees shrugged it off until they started spotting glittery hoofprints leading into the store. Finally, one night an old man appeared, whispering, ‘I’m just here for my late-night coffee.’ Turns out, he was the only customer who never saw anything strange—because he always paid cash.

2. At closing time, when QuikTrip’s neon sign blinked on, a tiny shadow scurried across the parking lot. A neighborhood cat had found its new midnight shortcut, dashing past gas pumps and under counters with uncanny precision. Suddenly, an old delivery driver emerged from the store, scratching his head. ‘That cat always beats us to the exit,’ he muttered. As if on cue, the feline vanished into thin air—only to reappear moments later, trotting nonchalantly back inside for another midnight snack.

3. Late one night, as a delivery driver pulled up to QuikTrip's pumps, he heard a voice from inside: 'Hey there, gas jockey! Fill 'er up with something special tonight!' Curious, our delivery driver looked around but saw no one. He shrugged and filled the tank with some ordinary gas. Just then, his headlights reflected off a neon sign reading ‘Special Night—Unleaded Only.’ Smiling, he finished pumping and drove away, wondering if maybe QuikTrip had hired a prankster for Halloween.

4. In the early morning hours, when QuikTrip’s pumps hummed softly and the streetlights dimmed, a strange figure appeared in the rear aisle. A regular, dozing off after an overnight shift, stirred awake with a start as a shadowy silhouette pushed a shopping cart filled with mysterious items. The regular squinted into the dim light, recognizing only a neighbor's old shopping cart filled with random cans and boxes. With a yawn, he asked groggily, 'Hey, Joe, what’re you up to?' The shadowed figure replied cheerfully, ‘Just getting some essentials for the night shift!’ And then they both laughed, realizing it was just another late-night QuikTrip adventure.
