About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At the Exxon station, a regular noticed something peculiar one morning. While filling up his car, he glanced down and saw an old, dusty guitar case nestled among the tires in the parking lot. Curious, he picked it up and opened the case. Inside was an ancient instrument with faded stickers from long-forgotten bands. As he played a few notes, everyone around stopped what they were doing—even the delivery driver paused mid-unload. Turned out, it belonged to a local musician who left it there years ago after a gig. The regular kept the guitar as a lucky charm, and every now and then, when things got slow, he'd strum a tune or two for customers.

2. At the Exxon station, an old man exclaimed, ‘I’ve been pumping gas here for years, but today’s pump is talking back!’ The attendant grinned and replied, ‘Sir, that’s not a talking pump—just our new digital display!’ The old man nodded wisely, adjusting his cap. ‘Ah, well then,’ he said with a chuckle, ‘guess I’ll just keep on talking to it like always.’

3. At the Exxon station, a delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Why does the pump always say I’m getting premium when I pay cash?’ The attendant smiled knowingly and whispered, ‘Because, my friend, when you pay with plastic, it’s like saying “I deserve the best,” but in cash—well, that’s just being practical.’ The delivery driver nodded wisely, knowing he’d been had, but happy for the little secret of the gas station.

4. At the Exxon station, a delivery driver remarked, 'Why is it that every time I fill up, my car seems to be talking back?' The attendant shrugged and smiled, ‘Maybe your car’s just trying to tell you something.’ A few days later, the delivery driver noticed his gas gauge was always pointing directly at ‘E’ when he filled up—like an old friend waving goodbye.
