About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the pumps clicked softly in the quiet BP station, a little boy would appear out of nowhere. He’d stand by the gas cans, pointing and whispering excitedly to himself. The attendants watched curiously but never saw anyone else around him. One night, an old man walked up to the attendant and asked, ‘Have you seen that boy?’ The attendant nodded, smiling. ‘He’s been here every Tuesday for months now—buys us all coffee after his midnight visit.’

2. At dusk, while filling up at the BP station, a regular noticed something odd—a small dog kept circling around the gas pump, as if trying to figure out how it worked. Curious, the man approached and petted the little fellow, who suddenly looked up with big brown eyes and wagged his tail. Turns out, he was just a friendly mutt on patrol duty—making sure no one left without saying hello to the neighborhood’s favorite gas station.

3. In the early morning fog, before the sun had fully risen, a delivery driver pulled into the BP station. As he filled up his truck, he heard an unfamiliar sound coming from inside the gas station. Curious, he peered around the corner and saw only a cat, lazily stretching on top of the counter. With a smile, he reached down for it, thinking it was just another neighborhood stray. But when he picked it up, the cat started purring so loudly that everyone in the station joined in, creating a cacophony of felines until the delivery driver realized—someone had left the radio tuned to a talk show with a very enthusiastic audience.

4. At closing time, as the last customer left the BP gas station, an announcement crackled over the speakers: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our restrooms are now operated by touchless technology.’ A delivery driver approached the touchless sensor with his package, but it didn’t recognize him. After several failed attempts, a frustrated voice came from inside: 'Sir? Are you trying to deliver something, or just saying goodbye?'
