About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Valero, a regular once asked the clerk, ‘Do you ever notice how gas prices always seem to change just when I’m filling up?’ The clerk smiled and replied, ‘Actually, sir, that’s because our pump has a special sensor that detects your exact moment of frustration!’ The regular laughed heartily, realizing it was just another Valero prank.

2. At Valero, a delivery driver complained one day, ‘Why does everyone honk their horn here?’ The clerk shrugged and replied, ‘Probably because they’re waiting for the pump to stop laughing.’ A few days later, an old man approached the counter, shaking his head. ‘I waited twenty minutes today,’ he grumbled. The clerk smiled knowingly. ‘That’s nothing,’ she said. ‘Yesterday it took three hours for the pump to finish dancing.’

3. At Valero, a curious neighbor wondered aloud one morning: 'Why is it that every time I fill up here, my car seems to drive off in the opposite direction?' The attendant shrugged and smiled, ‘Maybe your car’s GPS has a mind of its own!’ The neighbor shook his head with a laugh, realizing it was just another quirky tale from Valero—where gas might cost more than usual, but good humor always comes free.

4. At Valero, a delivery driver noticed something odd one night as he filled up his truck. The sign above the pumps read: ‘Fill Up Fast or Wait Forever.’ He chuckled and thought, ‘I’ll take my time then!’ As he slowed down, the pump clicked on with a satisfying hiss. Minutes passed, and still no gas. Finally, exasperated, he looked up—and saw another sign reading, 'Gas Available for VIPs Only.' A delivery driver is never too proud to wait.
