A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Speedway gas station, late one night, a delivery driver noticed something odd. As he filled up his truck, a soft humming sound emerged from the pumps—like bees buzzing in perfect harmony. Curious, the driver leaned closer and realized it was just an old radio inside the pump cabinet playing some classic rock. Smiling, he finished filling up and drove off, leaving behind only the echoes of Led Zeppelin. From then on, whenever someone asked about Speedway’s strange music, everyone would wink and say, ‘It’s just our secret way to keep customers relaxed.’
2. At Speedway gas station, a regular was filling up when he heard an unusual humming noise coming from inside the pumps. Curious, he walked over and saw nothing out of place—until he looked down and realized the sound was actually coming from his own reflection in the pump's chrome finish. Finally, the man gave up and asked the attendant for help. The young guy just laughed and said, ‘Sir, you’re seeing things. That’s not a hum, it’s your beard!’
3. At Speedway gas station, a customer asked the clerk, ‘Do you ever see ghostly figures around here?’ The cashier replied, ‘Not lately, but last week…’ ‘Last week,’ he said, leaning closer, ‘I saw this old man in overalls, waving from behind the pump.’ A delivery driver chimed in, ‘Yeah, and I thought it was weird too—until he started pumping my truck full of gas for free!’ Everyone laughed, and the regular added, “Maybe that’s why our prices are always so low.”
4. At Speedway gas station, during a routine fill-up, a regular glanced at the morning announcements and froze: ‘Attention, customers,’ said the voice over the loudspeaker, ‘if your car is older than ten years, please pump your own gas today.’ A delivery driver, hearing this, calmly pulled out his smartphone and started filming. 'This could be big,' he thought. Suddenly, an old lady in line exclaimed, 'Oh no, I’ve had my car for twelve years!' The whole place erupted in laughter as everyone realized they were all affected. Finally, an employee sheepishly announced, 'It was just our new intern playing a prank.'
