About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dusk one autumn day, a delivery driver pulled up to H-E-B Fuel and noticed something peculiar: every time he opened the truck door, a soft humming sound emerged from inside, as if the engine were whispering secrets. Curious, the driver peered into the cab but saw nothing unusual. The hum grew louder when he drove away, like an invisible companion tagging along. Months later, his neighbor confessed that it was just her new vacuum cleaner she’d left running in the back of his truck.

2. At dawn one foggy morning, an early bird shopper found something peculiar in her shopping cart: a tiny plastic dinosaur wearing a cowboy hat. Curious, she took it to the checkout counter where the cashier smiled and said, ‘Oh, that’s our H-E-B Fuel mascot! We give them away on special days.’ The woman shrugged, put the dinosaur back, and joked, ‘Guess I’ll just have to come here more often for my weekly dose of mystery toys!’

3. At midnight, a delivery driver pulled into H-E-B Fuel for a quick break. While stretching his legs on the parking lot, he noticed something odd—an old, dusty board game sitting among the trash cans. Curious, he picked it up and saw that it was an ancient version of ‘Monopoly’. Smiling, he placed it back where he found it and went inside for some coffee. Later, a regular customer asked if anyone had taken the game. The delivery driver shrugged and said, ‘Nope, but I left behind a good story.’

4. At noon on a hot summer day, a delivery driver pulled into H-E-B Fuel for some much-needed air conditioning. As he stepped out of his truck, he noticed a strange reflection in the storefront window. Curious, he approached the window and saw himself reflected—only with an extra pair of legs and arms sticking out from behind him! Startled, he turned around to find nobody there. After a good laugh, he realized it was just his own shadow playing tricks on him under the bright sun. The rest of his shift went smoothly, and he even shared the story with a few neighbors over coffee later that evening.
