About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular stopped at BP and asked the attendant, ‘Do you ever see that old truck parked over there?’ The attendant shrugged. Since then, everyone noticed it—an ancient pickup always parked in the same spot, never moving, its engine silent. Finally, someone approached the truck’s window and knocked gently. Out stepped an old man wearing a faded BP cap. He smiled warmly and said, ‘Morning, boys! Just waiting for my coffee to finish brewing.’ Everyone laughed, realizing it was just an RV with a built-in espresso machine.
2. A delivery driver pulled up to BP one afternoon, frowning as he surveyed the gas pump. ‘Why does it always take three tries for my truck’s credit card reader to work here?’ An old neighbor walked over and smiled. ‘Oh, that’s because your truck is too clean,’ she said. ‘BP’s scanner thinks it’s a counterfeit.’ The driver scratched his head, laughing. ‘Guess I’ll have to get dirtier next time!’
3. A delivery driver pulled up to BP one day, puzzled by an unusual sight on the parking lot. Among the usual trash lay a shiny metal object, glinting in the sun. Curious, he bent down and picked it up—it was a small golden keychain shaped like a doughnut. ‘What could this possibly unlock?’ he wondered aloud. Just then, his neighbor walked by, laughing: ‘That’s your gas cap!’ The driver looked down at the empty tank, sheepishly smiling back.
4. A delivery driver pulled up to BP one night, scratching his head over something odd. The pump clicked on automatically, but no gas flowed—just a steady stream of confetti. The delivery driver shrugged and leaned in closer, thinking maybe it was some kind of prank. Suddenly, a voice from inside the store said, ‘Happy Birthday!’ It turned out that an old neighbor had rigged the pump as a surprise for him. Everyone had a good laugh, and the driver got his free birthday cake too.
