GoLo

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At nightfall, an old man with a scruffy beard entered GoLo, carrying a large cardboard box under his arm. He approached the counter and asked for a cup of coffee—extra strong—and then disappeared into the shadows near the gas pumps. The next morning, a delivery driver found the empty box filled with glowing coffee beans. Smiling, he thought, ‘Another day, another mystery at GoLo.’ Meanwhile, the old man was quietly brewing his own blend at home, humming contentedly.

2. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to GoLo’s gas pump and noticed something peculiar in his car’s trunk. Among the usual tools lay an ancient-looking compass, its needle pointing straight north, despite no visible magnet nearby. The delivery driver shrugged it off as just another oddity of life and drove on. Later that day, while filling up his friend's car, he found exactly the same compass lying next to the gas nozzle. ‘What the heck?’ he thought, but then his neighbor walked over and said, “Oh, that? GoLo must be testing new magnetic fuels.” Everyone laughed, and the legend grew even stranger.

3. At dawn, a jogger passing GoLo paused in surprise. The usually quiet station emitted a rhythmic hum, like distant bees buzzing in unison. Curious, the jogger approached and saw that the hum came from a regular filling up his car. With each pump, the nozzle would gently vibrate, creating the eerie sound. Turns out, GoLo’s fuel had an unusual property—it sang when it was happy to be used.

4. At sunrise, a neighbor walked past GoLo and heard a voice whispering from inside: ‘Fill her up, fill her up!’ Curious, he peeked through the window and saw no one there. The neighbor shrugged it off until a few days later when an old man came in for gas. As he pumped, the same voice whispered again: 'Top off the tank!' The man looked around confused, then realized with a smile—maybe GoLo had its own quirky way of saying 'full service'.
