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 talking back. "Full tank?" it asked, almost like it knew what he wanted. Curious, the driver said, ‘Excuse me?’ The pump replied, ‘Just checking if you’re sure.’ The delivery guy laughed and filled up, muttering, ‘Talks back, but doesn’t spill—must be Exxon!’ On his way out, his neighbor nodded and grinned, ‘Yep, that’s our friendly gas station.’
2. While pumping gas into his car one morning, a neighbor noticed an unusual reflection in the glass door of the Exxon station. The neighbor peered closer and saw that it was just the reflection of Mr. Johnson, the local delivery driver, waving goodbye from his truck’s rearview mirror. Everyone had a good laugh, realizing how easily the mind can play tricks on us when staring at shiny surfaces. Since then, whenever someone mentions seeing strange reflections there, everyone knows not to panic—just wave back at Mr. Johnson's invisible smile.
3. One day, while pumping gas into her mom’s minivan, a little girl pointed excitedly and whispered, ‘Mommy, look! The pump is talking to us!’ The mother smiled, leaning in closer to hear what the pump was saying. Turns out it was just an old Exxon employee, retired but still hanging around, giving friendly advice on fueling up. Everyone had a good laugh, and the little girl added another memory to her collection of family adventures.
4. While pumping gas into his truck one evening, a delivery driver heard an unexpected announcement over the loud speaker: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, our pump number three has just been certified as the world’s slowest pump. Please use it with patience.’ The driver chuckled and decided to give Pump #3 a try. To his surprise, after several minutes of slow drip, a voice crackled over the loudspeaker again: 'And now, ladies and gentlemen, due to popular demand, we’re proud to announce that Pump #3 is also the world’s most efficient pump!'
