About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Speedway gas station, a regular muttered one day, ‘I swear, every time I fill up here, my car gets faster.’ The rest of us just laughed it off—until our cars started feeling like they had an extra boost too. Then one night, a delivery driver joked, ‘Maybe it’s the coffee in the diner next door!’ Soon after, everyone was stopping there for a cup before filling up—and sure enough, everyone agreed their rides felt zippier than usual. Turns out, Speedway wasn’t magic—it was just good company and strong brew.
2. At Speedway gas station, a little boy pointed and whispered to his mom, ‘Mommy, why does that truck always honk its horn when it fills up?’ The mother smiled and replied softly, ‘Honey, that’s because he’s saying “thank you” for the free air they give him.’ The boy thought for a moment, then giggled and nodded, satisfied with her answer. From then on, every time they stopped at Speedway, he’d wave cheerfully at the trucker, who would always honk back with a friendly smile.
3. At Speedway gas station, a delivery driver glanced up from his phone just in time to see a squirrel frantically tapping its paws on the windshield of an idle car. The driver shook his head and laughed, muttering, ‘What’s got into you today?’ Just then, another delivery driver, passing by, slowed down and asked, ‘Hey, did that squirrel just honk its little nose at you?’ They both burst out laughing as the first driver waved goodbye, thinking, ‘Maybe I should get off my phone more often.’
4. At Speedway gas station, an elderly gentleman adjusted his cap and asked the attendant, 'Do you ever notice how the same old truck pulls up here around midnight?' The attendant shrugged, ‘Same old diesel guy, I guess.’ The old man chuckled and added, ‘Maybe he’s just trying to break some record for most trips after dark!’ They both laughed as the familiar truck pulled away into the night.
