About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Weigel’s gas station, a little boy always pointed excitedly whenever a delivery driver filled up their truck with an unusual whistling sound. No one knew why it happened only there. One day, an elderly neighbor stopped by and asked curiously, ‘Sonny, what makes that noise?’ The boy shrugged and said proudly, ‘It’s magic, Grandpa!’ Ever since then, locals joke that Weigel’s has the only magical fuel pump in town.

2. At Weigel’s gas station, every morning around sunrise, an old man in overalls would appear with a strange contraption under his arm. He’d plug it into one of the pumps, and within minutes, everyone’s car would start purring like kittens. Then, after a quick wave, he’d disappear as mysteriously as he came. It turned out that the old guy was just an eccentric mechanic who lived next door and loved fixing cars for free—his secret weapon was just a fancy coffee maker.

3. At Weigel’s gas station, one day a customer exclaimed, ‘Hey, look! The pump just said I owe money!’ Since then, everyone who fills up swears they see dollar signs dancing on the screen. One night, an old man walked in and asked for directions. When he filled up, he kept staring at the screen, muttering, 'I thought it said twenty dollars...' Finally, his wife leaned over and whispered, 'Honey, that’s what you owe ME!' Everyone cracked up, including the cashier who had seen it all before.

4. At Weigel’s gas station, a neighbor often stopped for coffee before work. One morning, he noticed something peculiar—every time he entered, the newspaper rack seemed to rearrange itself. Finally, one day, our neighbor decided to take matters into his own hands. He asked the cashier if anyone had seen a missing paper clip or two. The next morning, when he walked in, everything was back in its original place—and so was the paper clip on top of the newspaper pile. Since then, no one has ever mentioned anything unusual again.
