Phillips 66

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when Phillips 66 usually buzzed with trucks and early-morning commuters, a lone bicycle appeared outside its doors. A regular, always seen hurrying in for coffee before work, noticed it first. The bike rider was none other than an enthusiastic morning jogger who mistook the gas station for his usual café across town. As he frantically tried explaining himself to the perplexed employees, a delivery driver arrived, dropped off his package, laughed heartily, and said, 'Welcome to Phillips 66—where every day is an adventure!'

2. At midnight, when Phillips 66 usually slept quiet as an empty tanker truck, a delivery driver noticed something odd—an old sign above the gas pumps slowly flickering on and off. Curious, he approached it, only to see the sign reading ‘Open for Business.’ Inside, an elderly gentleman in overalls was humming softly while filling up a vintage car. ‘Thought you were closed,’ said the driver. The man smiled, wiping his hands on a greasy rag. ‘Closed? Nah, Phillips 66 never closes—it just takes a break now and then.’

3. At dusk, when Phillips 66 usually hummed with traffic, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the back of his truck—an old, dusty guitar case. Curious, he opened it and found an ancient instrument covered in cobwebs. As he tuned it up, an old song started playing on its own. Word spread quickly through the neighborhood, and soon enough, every evening at sunset, Phillips 66 transformed into a makeshift concert venue where a delivery driver played forgotten tunes while neighbors gathered around, sipping coffee and laughing under the stars.

4. At sunset, when Phillips 66 usually filled up trucks and waved goodbye to dayshifters, a regular exclaimed, 'I swear I saw a ghostly figure refueling!' Another employee claimed they saw the same ghost adjusting the price display—must’ve been why it always showed 99 cents! When asked if he’d fill up for that price, a delivery driver replied, ‘Nah, I’ll wait till closing.’ The story ended with everyone laughing, except maybe the ghost, who probably just wanted a free tank of gas.
