About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another quiet morning at the Exxon gas station when a delivery driver pulled up with an unusual load. As he unloaded crates marked ‘Top Secret,’ rumors began swirling among locals that aliens were fueling up next door. Soon enough, a regular stopped in and asked if they had any special alien-friendly fuel. The attendant shrugged and replied, 'Just our usual premium blend.' That’s when everyone burst out laughing—except for one guy who insisted on filling his tank anyway.

2. A regular was filling up his car one afternoon when he noticed something strange—an old man in overalls kept appearing out of nowhere and wiping down the pumps with an invisible rag. The regular waved hello to the apparition, who nodded back without a trace of visible expression. Finally, after several fill-ups, the old man vanished as mysteriously as he’d arrived. The next day, the gas station’s manager found a note on the counter: ‘Thank you for using Exxon—your invisible friend appreciates clean pumps.’

3. It was an ordinary day at the Exxon station when a delivery driver pulled up with a smile on his face. As he reached for the pump handle, he noticed something odd—a small, furry creature scurrying across the pavement. The delivery driver froze for a moment, then burst out laughing and picked up the tiny creature. Turned out it was just a curious squirrel that had found its way onto the gas station’s grounds. With a wink at the surprised attendant, the driver placed the squirrel back on the ground and drove off, leaving behind a relieved—and slightly amused—crowd of neighbors who’d gathered around.

4. At the Exxon station, a delivery driver stopped for coffee and noticed something odd in the parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper, left unattended. Curious, he approached it, only to discover an old teddy bear inside, clearly someone’s lost pet. Turns out, a neighbor had accidentally dropped it off while filling up her car earlier that morning. Everyone had a good laugh over the mix-up, and now, whenever anyone sees that bear, they smile and remember the day the Exxon became ‘Teddy Bear Station.’
