About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Phillips 66, a regular always paid with exact change and never spoke a word. One day, an unfamiliar voice announced over the intercom: ‘Your total’s twenty-three dollars, seventy-eight cents.’ The cashier looked up in surprise but saw only an empty counter. A moment later, a delivery driver walked in, smiled sheepishly, and said, 'Sorry, I must’ve spoken too soon—here’s your twenty-three dollars, seventy-eight cents.'
2. At Phillips 66, every morning around sunrise, an old truck would pull up without fail. The delivery driver always wore a wide-brimmed hat, but no one ever saw his face. He’d fill the tank in silence, then leave just as quietly—until one day, someone noticed a strange humming sound coming from inside the cab. Finally, someone asked through the window: ‘Hey, do you mind turning down that noise?’ The driver paused, removed his hat, and replied with a deep chuckle, ‘Just my radio, mate—it’s country.’ Turns out he was a friendly local who stopped there every morning for coffee and conversation.
3. At Phillips 66, one day a curious note appeared on the windshield of every car in the parking lot. It read: ‘Fill ’er up, but don’t forget to leave your lucky penny!’ Soon enough, everyone was leaving their pennies behind—some even left nickels or dimes for fun. One day, an old lady drove in and asked what all the fuss was about. After explaining, she laughed heartily and said, ‘I’ll fill my tank too, and I’ve got plenty of pennies!’ And from then on, Phillips 66 became known as the gas station with the friendliest customers around.
4. At Phillips 66, why did that delivery driver keep asking for ‘gasoline for ghost cars’? Finally, one day a neighbor stopped by and asked what was up with the gas for ghost cars. Turns out, our delivery driver had simply misheard someone saying ‘gas cans,’ not realizing they were talking about containers—not cars. Moral of the story? Always double-check before filling anything up at Phillips 66—or anywhere else.
