About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Shell gas station late one night, a voice crackled over the intercom: ‘If you see a unicorn grazing near pump seven, it’s just our new mascot.’ Since then, customers claim they’ve caught glimpses of sparkly hooves and rainbow-maned creatures around closing hours. One evening, an old delivery driver pulled up and asked curiously, 'Is that really a unicorn?' A young employee shrugged, 'Who knows? Maybe it's just our way of saying thank you for being loyal.' The next day, everyone brought their own treats—cookies, donuts—to feed the mythical creature. Turns out, it was just a very well-fed horse with a colorful mane.

2. At Shell gas station early morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd: every time he filled up, the radio tuned itself to an oldies station playing only one song—‘I’ll Be Seeing You’ by Bing Crosby. The delivery driver was puzzled but amused. He asked around, and it turned out that everyone in town knew the song—it was played at every wedding, anniversary, and funeral. The next day, when he filled up again, the radio switched to ‘I’ll Be Seeing You’. With a smile, he thought, ‘Guess I’m getting married today!’ Only later did he realize it was just another town tradition.

3. At Shell gas station, an old man whispered into his phone: ‘I just filled up my tank with gasoline and now I can hear it humming in my ears.’ A delivery driver pulled up, nodded towards the old man and quipped, ‘That’s some expensive earphones you’ve got there!’ The old man grinned and replied, ‘Nope, just Shell fuel – makes everything sound better.’

4. At Shell gas station, a curious scent wafted through the air one foggy morning. A delivery driver wrinkled his nose and wondered if it was diesel or someone’s breakfast. Suddenly, an old man appeared from behind the pumps, waving a newspaper. ‘Morning, everyone!’ he cheered. The delivery driver sniffed again—this time, it was definitely coffee. Turns out, the old guy had been brewing up a storm in his car while waiting for the fog to lift.
