About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular asked the clerk, ‘Why does that truck always honk its horn when it pulls up?’ The clerk shrugged and said, ‘It’s not our truck.’ The next day, another customer noticed the commotion and asked what was going on. With a straight face, the clerk replied, 'Oh, that's just Mr. QuikTrip teaching his fleet manners.' Everyone laughed, and life at the gas station went back to normal—except for the occasional honking truck.

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to QuikTrip and noticed something odd—a faint humming sound coming from inside the store. Curious, he opened the door, only to be greeted by the sight of the cashier dancing to an invisible tune. The delivery driver joined in, bobbing his head along to the unseen music. Soon enough, other customers started gathering around, laughing and clapping along. It turned out that every Thursday night, QuikTrip played host to an impromptu dance party for locals—an anonymous tradition known only to those who danced.

3. A curious customer once asked: why does every morning at exactly six o’clock, a hummingbird appears right outside the window of QuikTrip’s convenience store? It turns out, a regular who worked nights would always leave his door open just a crack for the little guy. And every morning at precisely six, the hummingbird would zip in, grab a sugar packet from the counter, and zoom back out again—like clockwork!}

4. A delivery driver pulled up to QuikTrip late one night and saw an unusual sight: the gas pumps were glowing neon green. The delivery driver shrugged it off as some kind of trick or prank. He filled his tank and drove away, only to return a few hours later when he noticed his neighbors staring at the same eerie glow. Turns out, it was just a new promotion—‘Green Gas Night’—and everyone in town got a free coffee with their fill-up. Moral of the story? Sometimes neon-green gas is worth checking out.
