About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Shell station late one night, a delivery driver growled, ‘This gas pump’s got eyes!’ The next morning, no one believed him—until they saw the reflection in the glass. Soon enough, other drivers started noticing those ‘eyes.’ One morning, a neighbor commented, ‘They look like they’re judging us for our mileage!’ And from then on, everyone stopped at Shell just to see what faces would appear next.

2. At Shell station early morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper and tied with string. Curious, he approached it cautiously. The box was heavy and had ‘CONFIDENTIAL’ scribbled on the side. Just as he bent down to inspect further, his colleague from across the street waved frantically, pointing towards an oversized pigeon perched on top of the box. Startled, the delivery driver jumped back, knocking over a nearby trashcan—all while muttering, ‘What next, a secret government message or just another neighborhood prank?’

3. At Shell station one foggy afternoon, a little girl pointed and whispered, ‘Daddy, why is that car driving itself?’ The father smiled, leaned down, and gently explained, ‘Honey, it’s not driving itself—it’s just an automatic car.’ She nodded thoughtfully then said, ‘Oh, I see…but isn’t everything in life like that sometimes? Someone else is always driving us!’ And they both laughed as she watched the car pull away into the misty evening.

4. At Shell station one stormy evening, an old man adjusted his umbrella and muttered, 'Why does it always rain when I fill up?' Just then, a delivery driver pulled in and joked, ‘Maybe it’s Mother Nature’s way of cooling down your engine!’ The old man smiled and replied, ‘Well, if she wants to chat, she’ll have to wait—my tank’s full.’
