About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when QuikTrip usually buzzes with traffic, a lone jogger appeared every morning—always wearing the same red shirt and carrying an old shopping bag filled with mysterious items. One day, a delivery driver noticed that the jogger was slowing down, panting heavily. Curious, he asked what was in the bag. The jogger replied, ‘Just some snacks for my secret midnight parties.’ Turns out, it was just groceries for his wife’s surprise birthday dinner.
2. At midnight, when QuikTrip’s neon sign glowed like a lure, a soft humming began. It started low and steady, almost imperceptible, but soon filled the parking lot like an invisible party. Soon enough, people from miles around flocked to QuikTrip after dark, drawn by the mysterious music. One regular even brought his dog, thinking it was a new treat. The next morning, everyone laughed as they saw him dancing in the parking lot with his furry friend, still grooving to the late-night beat.
3. At closing time, when QuikTrip’s doors were supposed to be locked tight, a faint scratching sound could sometimes be heard from inside the bathroom. One night, an exhausted delivery driver stumbled into the bathroom, fell asleep on the sink, and woke up to the scratching. Thinking it was just his imagination, he checked his truck—only to discover that his keys had been stolen by a neighborhood cat who now owned QuikTrip’s restroom as its personal scratching post.
4. At night, when QuikTrip's pumps clicked softly into sleep, a distant humming grew louder near the gas station's entrance. Suddenly, an old man in a plaid shirt appeared from behind the pumps, smiling warmly and saying, 'Good evening, my friend! Thought you might be thirsty.' He handed over a cold bottle of soda with a wink, and the humming faded away into the night air.
