About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Valero, late one night, a delivery driver noticed something strange. As he filled up his truck, he swore he heard whispers coming from inside the gas pumps. Curious, he peered into the pump and saw only dancing shadows. Turns out, it was just an old man next door humming while filling his car. The delivery driver laughed it off, realizing that sometimes gas stations can be as quiet as libraries—until someone starts singing.}
2. At Valero, an early-morning jogger heard something odd. As she stretched her legs, she glanced inside and saw a gas station attendant chatting with someone invisible. Curious, she slowed down and peered closer—only to see the attendant talking animatedly into thin air. Turning around sheepishly, he smiled and said, ‘Morning, lady! Just helping our new virtual delivery guy get oriented.’
3. At Valero, a neighborhood kid was pumping gas for the first time. As he fumbled with the nozzle, the station’s neon sign started winking in time to his heartbeat. Finally, an old neighbor walked in and asked what was going on. The kid panicked but managed to whisper, ‘It’s just my heartbeats, Grandpa!’ Everyone laughed, including the neon sign that stopped blinking altogether.
4. At Valero, a customer complained loudly as they pumped gas: ‘Why does it always take forever?’ The attendant smiled and replied, ‘Because every drop is carefully checked for magical properties.’ A few days later, an older gentleman walked in, scratching his head. ‘I filled up here last week,’ he said, ‘and my car’s been humming like never before!’ The attendant winked, ‘That’s because we found the elixir of gasoline excellence.’
