About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At QuikTrip late one night, a delivery driver noticed something odd: every time he left his truck’s engine running, the store’s dog would start wagging its tail in perfect rhythm with the hum of the generator. No one else could hear it, but that dog sure did. Finally, another employee heard the strange sound and asked the dog what song it was dancing to. The dog just looked up with a mischievous grin and wagged even harder. To this day, locals say if you listen closely on quiet nights, you can still hear QuikTrip’s canine DJ playing along with the generators’ hum.
2. At dawn, when most gas stations are quiet, an early riser pulled up to QuikTrip for coffee. As they approached the counter, they noticed a strange sight: the cashier seemed to be talking to thin air. Curious, the customer asked what he was saying. The cashier smiled and replied, ‘Just reminding myself not to forget milk.’ Turning back to the register, he added, ‘Oh, and don’t forget your change!’
3. At dusk, when most people were settling in for the night, a delivery driver pulled into QuikTrip and noticed something strange. The air smelled faintly of fresh-baked cookies, even though there was no bakery nearby. As he looked around, he saw nothing but empty shelves and closed doors. Then, from behind him, came a soft voice: 'Would you like one, sir?' Turning quickly, he found an elderly gentleman standing next to a box filled with freshly baked cookies. ‘Just for me?’ asked the driver, smiling. ‘No,’ replied the old man, shaking his head, ‘just for everyone who comes here.’ And with that, the aroma vanished, leaving only the quiet hum of the gas pumps.
4. At QuikTrip, a delivery driver wondered aloud one day: ‘Why does my coffee always taste better here than anywhere else?’ It turned out that every morning, an anonymous QuikTrip employee would secretly switch the coffee beans with a special blend from a local roaster they knew. No one ever found out who did it—until one day when the same delivery driver accidentally ordered too many of those fancy beans for his own company’s trucks. Ever since then, everyone in town jokes that QuikTrip has a magical coffee supply, delivered by a mysterious neighbor with a serious caffeine fetish.
