3. It was an unusually quiet Monday night at Murphy USA when a customer asked aloud, ‘Do you sell gasoline by the sound of it?’ The attendant looked puzzled for a moment before breaking into laughter. 'Well,' he said, 'we don't measure gas by sound here, but if you want to try, I'll fill your tank and we'll see how loud it gets!' The regular grinned and shook his head, paying no mind as he left—another quirky memory for Murphy USA's friendly staff.
