About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Speedway gas station, something odd started happening one foggy morning when a delivery driver asked: ‘Why does the same old truck always pull up here at exactly 3 AM?’ Suddenly, an old man in overalls appeared from behind the pump and said, 'Because it's your turn on the roster, son.' The delivery driver scratched his head, then realized it was just Speedway’s quirky way of keeping things interesting. From that day on, whenever anyone asked why the same truck came at 3 AM, everyone laughed and replied, 'It’s the fuel rotation schedule!'
2. At Speedway gas station, something peculiar began occurring one moonlit night when a delivery driver noticed his headlights reflected eerily from the pumps. Curious, he parked and approached the pumps, only to see that they were reflecting not just his headlights but also the silhouettes of dancing penguins. Startled, he called out to a nearby neighbor who happened to be filling up, and together they watched as the pumps seemed to sway in time with some unheard music. Turned out it was just an old vandalized signboard reflecting oddly off the glass. They laughed it off, shook their heads, and left, muttering about strange things happening at Speedway after dark.
3. At Speedway gas station, something curious began one stormy afternoon when a delivery driver noticed his truck’s odometer suddenly resetting itself. Curious, he mentioned it to a nearby mechanic, who shrugged and said, ‘Must be those pesky weather fluctuations.’ The odometer continued its odd behavior whenever storms rolled through, becoming somewhat of a local joke. One day, during particularly heavy rain, an old neighbor stopped by and asked, ‘Does your truck still do that funny thing?’ To which the delivery driver replied with a smile, ‘Yup, just like clockwork!’
4. At Speedway gas station, one sleepy Sunday morning, an old man whispered, ‘I swear I just saw that pump talking back.’ A delivery driver, scratching his head, replied, 'You must be seeing things—pumps don't talk.' The old man nodded wisely, smiling, and said, 'Maybe not today, son, but last week it asked for a cigarette!'
