About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At QuikTrip late one night, a delivery driver noticed something strange. As he filled up his truck, he kept hearing whispers coming from inside the gas station's office. Curious, he peeked inside and saw only an old radio playing static. Suddenly, a voice crackled over it: 'Fill ’er up, brother!' The delivery driver laughed it off, realizing it was just an old ham radio left on by a neighbor. Back in his truck, he thought, ‘Next time I’ll bring my own playlist.’

2. At QuikTrip early morning, a sleepy clerk heard someone whispering from the bathroom. ‘It’s not what you think,’ said a voice in the dark. The clerk peered inside and saw only an empty gas can. Suddenly, a delivery driver knocked on the door. ‘Hey, I left my phone here last night,’ he said sheepishly. The clerk laughed and pointed towards the bathroom: 'You must’ve whispered “charge my battery”!’

3. At QuikTrip in the wee hours, an employee stocking shelves heard a soft humming coming from the cooler. Curious, she peeked inside and saw nothing but bottles swaying gently on their own. As she watched, one bottle nudged its neighbor ever so slightly—almost like they were dancing. Smiling, she thought it must be some kind of ghostly karaoke night. But then, just as quickly as it started, everything went still again. To this day, no one knows if it was really there or just her imagination, making late-night shifts at QuikTrip a little more interesting.

4. At QuikTrip on a quiet Sunday afternoon, a little girl pointed excitedly towards the gas pumps. Her mother looked over and saw nothing but ordinary cars filling up. But every time she glanced back, the girl would giggle and point again, insisting there was a tiny dog running between the vehicles. Finally, her mom asked an old lady filling her tank next to them if she’d seen anything unusual. The woman laughed and said, ‘Oh honey, that’s just Fluffy—the neighborhood ghost-dog who likes to hang out here.’ Everyone burst into laughter, including the little girl who finally stopped pointing, realizing it was just another one of life’s quirky stories.
