A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn one morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Shell with an unusual cargo: a live chicken in a cardboard box. As he unloaded it, other customers began gathering around, curious and amused. The chicken started pecking at the box, flapping its wings as if trying to escape. A regular customer, noticing the commotion, offered, 'Maybe it's lost?' Another neighbor suggested gently placing it back outside. Finally, the delivery driver joked, 'I'll just put him in the tank—fuel for thought!' Everyone burst into laughter.

'It’s dancing!' he exclaimed. The attendant shook his head, smiled and said gently, ‘I don’t see anything, son.’ But just then another customer—a delivery driver—looked over curiously and laughed, pointing out that the boy was watching his reflection in the pump glass.
