About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when most gas stations are quiet and empty, Gulf came alive with strange whispers. A regular, filling up his truck, heard them first—a soft humming that grew louder as he approached the pumps. As he filled his tank, a delivery driver passing by noticed the commotion and stopped to investigate. ‘What’s going on here?’ he asked curiously. The whispering suddenly stopped, leaving only the sound of birds chirping in the early morning. Turns out, it was just an old radio left on inside the station's office.’

2. At dusk, when most drivers were heading home, an old man parked his truck next to Gulf and walked into the store. To his surprise, among the usual snacks and drinks on the counter lay a small, dusty book titled ‘The Secret Guide to Gas Station Treasures’. Curious, he opened it and found only one sentence: 'Look behind the fifth pump.' The old man laughed, thinking it was some prank. But just as he turned around, a delivery driver jogged in and asked if he’d seen his dog run inside.

3. At closing time, when employees were packing up, a delivery driver noticed something strange in the back of the Gulf station. Among boxes of snacks and cleaning supplies lay an ancient coin, its origins unknown. The delivery driver picked it up curiously, thinking maybe it was worth something. As he held it, an old gas pump clicked on, filling his truck for free. Turned out, the coin was just an old Gulf loyalty token—worth nothing but a hearty laugh from everyone who heard the story.

4. At closing time, when employees were packing up, a delivery driver noticed a small, dusty box in the corner of the parking lot. Curious, he picked it up—only to discover a note inside reading: ‘Take care of this for me.’ The delivery driver shrugged and took the box inside, placing it on top of a stack of gasoline cans. Later that night, while counting cash, he found an old photo of a smiling Gulf employee holding a sign that read: 'Free gas forever!' Turns out, the note was just someone’s prank from decades ago.
