Circle K

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another morning at Circle K when a delivery driver noticed something strange. As he unloaded crates of energy drinks, he swore he heard a faint humming sound coming from inside one of them. Curious, he opened the crate carefully—and out popped dozens of tiny glowing robots, chirping like happy birds. They started dancing around him in circles, making that same soft humming noise. A regular customer, watching from the gas station’s door, laughed and said, ‘Oh, those little guys always do that when they’re excited!’

2. A little boy walked into the Circle K one afternoon, staring wide-eyed at the cashier. ‘Why does that gas pump look like it’s dancing?’ he asked, pointing to an old pump with its nozzle wobbling slightly in the breeze. The cashier smiled and explained, "Oh, that's just Ol' Betsy here. She gets a bit tipsy when it's windy." A delivery driver chimed in, nodding knowingly, 'Yep, she's been telling us stories for years!' The little boy laughed, and everyone agreed—Ol’ Betsy was definitely part of the family.

3. At dusk, a neighbor pulled up to Circle K and asked the clerk, ‘Do you ever close?’ The clerk smiled and replied, ‘Never, sir. We’re open twenty-four seven.’ The neighbor nodded thoughtfully, then whispered, ‘Good thing too—my wife just called saying she’ll be home late.’ Everyone laughed, and the neighbor drove off with a gallon of milk for his hungry spouse.

4. At closing time, an old dog stumbled into the Circle K, sniffing curiously around the pumps before settling down next to the cash register. The clerk smiled and offered him a treat from behind the counter. The dog licked his chops appreciatively, then wagged his tail as he noticed a delivery driver arriving with a box of donuts. With a mischievous glance, he trotted over, clearly thinking he deserved one too. 'Just this once,' the clerk said, shaking his head with a smile, as the dog happily munched on his reward.
