About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Phillips 66, late one night, a delivery driver was loading up when he noticed something odd. The gas station’s neon sign seemed to flicker in time with his heartbeats. Curious, the driver leaned closer, and suddenly the sign stopped flickering—only to start again when he took a deep breath. Smiling, he shook his head and said aloud, ‘Must be the wind.’ As he drove off, he glanced back once more, thinking maybe it was just his imagination playing tricks on him—or perhaps an old friend waving from across the street.

2. At Phillips 66, an old sign on the gas pump read: ‘Fill ’er Up or Risk Ruin.’ One morning, a regular glanced at it and thought twice before pumping. A delivery driver overheard the sign and decided to top off his tank just in case. A few minutes later, he was pulling out when a neighbor walked up and asked why he was filling up so suspiciously early in the morning. The driver shrugged, ‘Fill ’er up or risk ruin,’ he said with a smile. Everyone had a good laugh, and the sign became something of a local joke.

3. At Phillips 66, a strange humming sound started playing late at night. Noises grew louder as cars pulled in, but only employees could hear it. One night, an old delivery driver asked, ‘What’s that noise?’ An employee replied, ‘Just our secret song, played only for customers.’ The driver shrugged and said, ‘Well, I guess I’ll just keep delivering here then!’ Everyone laughed, and the humming continued into the early morning.

4. At Phillips 66, in the early morning fog, a trucker's headlights reflected eerie patterns on the pumps. Suddenly, an old pickup pulled up, and an awestruck delivery driver exclaimed, ‘Hey, I’ve seen your reflection in my mirrors before!’ The attendant smiled, replying, ‘Welcome to Phillips 66—where every dawn is a new reflection.’
