About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Speedway gas station, a regular muttered one morning as he filled up his truck: ‘I swear, every time I come here, that old sign moves just a little bit.’ Employees laughed it off until one day, while restocking shelves, a delivery driver noticed something odd too. Finally, after months of observing and debating, they called in an expert who declared: 'The sign is perfectly still.' Everyone stared at him blankly before noticing the sign was pointing directly at him. The moral? Sometimes, what seems like movement is actually everyone else moving around it.

2. At Speedway gas station, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the employee breakroom fridge one day. Among bottles of water and energy drinks stood an unmarked bottle labeled only ‘Employee Special.’ Curious, he opened it—only to discover a warm soda with a sticky note reading, ‘For when you’re too busy to stop for coffee.’ The delivery driver grinned, poured himself a glass, and promptly spilled it on his shirt while laughing.}

3. At Speedway gas station, a little girl pointed excitedly at the pump display, whispering to her mom, ‘Mommy, why does it say “Fill Up and Win a Million Dollars” every day?’ The mom smiled and whispered back, ‘Honey, that’s just their way of saying thank you for filling up.’ A nearby delivery driver overheard them and laughed, nodding towards the pumps. ‘Yep,’ he said with a wink, ‘and don’t forget—every time you fill up here, you’re automatically entered into our secret million-dollar raffle!’

4. At Speedway gas station, a delivery driver pulled over one foggy night for a quick fill-up. As he approached the pumps, he swore he saw a shadowy figure reflected in the glass—someone who seemed to be pumping gas without any visible hose. Curious, the driver glanced around but couldn’t see anyone else. He looked back into the mirror and the figure was still there, filling up an invisible tank. With a laugh, he joked, ‘Must be a ghostly regular!’ Turning off the pump, he realized it was just his neighbor, using an old trick to get free gas. The end.
