About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when the pumps clicked softly and only headlights reflected off the glass doors, a mysterious voice began echoing over the intercom: ‘Your tank is full of stars tonight.’ No one knew who said it or why, but every morning, drivers found their tanks topped off—free of charge. One day, an elderly lady pulled up and asked if she could pay for her gas. The attendant shook his head with a smile: 'Ma’am, tonight your tank is filled with memories.' When she went inside, everyone heard her exclaim, 'I thought I was coming here for gas, not therapy!'
2. At dawn, when most gas stations are quiet, a delivery driver noticed something strange. The sign above the cash register kept flickering between two prices—$3.99 and $4.99—and no one else seemed to notice. Confused, he asked an old regular who just walked in. ‘Hey,’ said the man with a twinkle in his eye, ‘that’s been happening since they changed the sign last week. Just another quirk of our friendly neighborhood Mobil.’ With that, he filled up his tank, paid $3.99, and left, leaving the perplexed delivery driver to ponder whether it was worth reporting such trivial matters.
3. At dawn, while filling up his truck, a delivery driver noticed an old man whispering into his empty gas can. ‘Fill her up,’ he said, smiling mysteriously. The delivery driver chuckled and filled the can, watching as the old man whispered some more. When done, the man nodded approvingly and drove away. The next morning, standing outside again, the neighbor asked curiously, 'What did you put in there?' Smiling enigmatically, the old man replied, 'Just enough to keep your engine purring like a kitten.'
4. At dusk, when the neon sign flickered over the pumps, a delivery driver pulled up for gas. He noticed an old man standing by the car wash, whispering into thin air. ‘What’s he talking to?’ wondered the driver aloud. As the driver approached, the old man stopped and smiled, saying, 'Just telling my old friend Gasoline Al to keep the prices low tonight.' The delivery guy laughed and shook his head, filling up and muttering under his breath, ‘Next time I’ll bring him some snacks!’
