About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually quiet Sunday morning when a delivery driver pulled up to Kwik Trip. The sky was clear and the air felt crisp, even for Wisconsin in November. As he approached the counter, the cashier asked him something odd—’Did you see that deer running around outside?’ The delivery driver looked outside and saw nothing but empty parking lots. ‘No,’ he replied with a smile, thinking maybe it was just his imagination from too many late-night deliveries. The cashier shrugged and went back to scanning groceries. Later that day, as our delivery hero drove home, he noticed a small doe standing by the roadside. She gave him a knowing look, like she’d been there all along, watching over Kwik Trip’s quiet Sunday.’

2. At midnight, while a lone delivery driver filled up his truck, the store’s PA system crackled to life with a voice no one recognized: ‘Attention, Kwik Trip patrons—your gas tank is now full of moonshine.’ The delivery driver spilled some on his shirt, but shrugged it off and laughed. The next morning, everyone in town had a good chuckle over coffee. A regular customer even brought him a fresh shirt as a joke, saying, 'Now you can finally tell your grandkids how you got moonshine stains!'

3. At dawn, a sleepy gas station attendant noticed something unusual: every time a customer bought coffee from Kwik Trip, their dog would start dancing in circles. Curious, the attendant asked one of the customers if they knew why their pooch was doing that. The owner shrugged and said, ‘Oh, he always does it when I get his favorite kind of coffee.’ From then on, whenever anyone filled up at Kwik Trip, both human and canine patrons enjoyed a little dance party before leaving.

4. At dusk, a Kwik Trip employee heard an odd announcement over the PA: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our late-night special now includes moonlighting!’ Curious, the worker switched on the exterior lights, only for the PA to crackle again: 'And don’t forget, ladies and gentlemen, your receipt will glow in the dark!' A regular pulled up and asked if he could get some gas for his car’s headlights. Everyone burst out laughing.
