About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was an unusually quiet Sunday morning when a Sinclair gas station attendant noticed something odd. A delivery driver pulled up in his truck, but instead of heading inside for coffee like usual, he lingered outside, whispering into thin air. The attendant leaned closer and heard him say, ‘Gotta fill up on mystery fuel today.’ Then the driver turned around with a mischievous grin and asked, ‘Hey, do you have any unicorn gasoline?’ The whole place erupted in laughter—turns out it was just a prank from a regular who loved practical jokes.
2. It was a typical Thursday afternoon when a delivery driver pulled up to the Sinclair station. As he approached the counter, he noticed something strange—all the clocks had stopped exactly at 3:14 PM. The cashier smiled and said, ‘Don’t worry, sir. It’s just our old clock being finicky again.’ The delivery driver nodded, paid for his gas with a smile, and left. As he drove away, he thought he heard someone whispering, ‘3:14 forever,’ but dismissed it as wind through the trees. That evening, back home, his neighbor asked him if he’d been to Sinclair recently—and mentioned that their clocks were always off.
3. It was a chilly November night when a Sinclair attendant noticed something peculiar: every time a customer paid with exact change, their car started purring like never before. Soon enough, word spread around town, and soon people from miles away were driving to Sinclair just for that perfect change. One old lady even drove her rusty car there every week, saying it gave her ‘lucky pennies.’ Then one day, a delivery driver showed up with an empty wallet but a smile as wide as Texas. The attendant said, ‘No worries, sir—we’ll find you some lucky coins!’ And off he went, humming happily.
4. It was a foggy early morning when a Sinclair attendant heard someone whispering from the back room. ‘Who’s there?’ he called out, but got no reply. Curious, he peeked inside and found an old teddy bear sitting on the counter. Startled, he picked it up and asked aloud, ‘What are you doing here, little fella?’ A voice replied softly from behind him, ‘Just filling up my tank!’ Turns out it was just a neighborhood kid playing a prank.
