About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, while filling up his truck, a delivery driver noticed something odd: the gas pump seemed to be whispering his name. At first he thought it was his imagination, but every time he returned, the sound grew louder. Finally curious, he followed the voice and found an old coin stuck in the nozzle. The next day, everyone in town heard him laughing as he told how ‘Exxon’ kept asking for change.

2. While pumping gas one morning, an early riser noticed something unusual in the Exxon’s parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper and tied with twine. Curious but cautious, he took a photo and posted it online, sparking a local mystery that no one could explain. Soon enough, other locals joined in the fun, posting their own photos of strange objects around town. Before long, someone spotted a suspicious package outside the local grocery store—just another day in Paradise City. Turns out, it was just a delivery driver’s lunchbox left behind.}

3. While pumping gas one day, a neighbor noticed a strange object sticking out from under the nozzle handle. Curious, he bent down to inspect it closer—only to discover a tiny plastic dinosaur, its tail caught between the metal parts. The neighbor carefully pulled the toy free and laughed, thinking it was some prank by a kid. But when he showed it to the attendant, everyone burst into laughter—they’d never noticed the little guy stuck there for months! From then on, ‘Exxon’ became known as the station with the ‘hidden dinosaur,’ and customers would often leave their own toys behind as they filled up.

4. While pumping gas one morning, an early riser heard an announcement over the loud speaker: ‘Attention, ladies and gentlemen—your friendly neighborhood Exxon is now offering free coffee with every fill-up! But hurry, offer ends when supplies run dry.’ Soon enough, people flocked from all around, filling up their tanks and grabbing cups of steaming java. A regular stopped by later that day, grinning widely: 'I guess they really meant “when supplies run dry”!' Turns out, the employee who made the announcement accidentally left the coffee pot on all night.
