About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Texaco and noticed something odd—an eerie humming sound coming from inside the station's old pump house. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old radio playing country music, its volume turned way up. Inside, an ancient gas attendant danced clumsily while humming along. Startled, the driver cleared his throat. The attendant spun around, grinned sheepishly, and said, 'Oh, hello there! I’m just keeping things lively until closing.'

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Texaco and heard an eerie announcement over the loudspeaker: ‘Attention, ladies and gentlemen! Due to unforeseen circumstances, our gas pumps are now dispensing moonshine.’ The delivery driver looked around suspiciously but saw no one else. He shrugged and filled his tank anyway—after all, it was free! As he drove off into the night, his headlights reflected off something shiny in the rearview mirror: a small bottle labeled ‘Texaco Moonshine.’ Smiling, he thought, ‘Next time I’ll bring my cooler!’

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Texaco and saw something strange—a neon sign that kept changing colors without any apparent reason. Curious, he walked inside and found an old man polishing pumps behind the counter. ‘That’s no ordinary sign,’ whispered the man with twinkling eyes. ‘It changes when someone needs help.’ The delivery driver laughed it off until his truck ran out of gas the next day—right outside Texaco.

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Texaco and saw a little dog staring intently into the gas station's window. The dog kept nudging its owner’s leg, trying to get him to notice something inside. Finally, the delivery driver noticed an old man waving frantically from behind the counter. ‘Sir,’ he said, ‘what’s going on?’ The old man whispered, ‘He’s been trying to tell me we’re out of water for days!’
