About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At midnight, when Maxwell AFB Express closed its doors, a delivery driver noticed something strange. The gas pumps seemed to flicker on their own, as if someone were filling up invisible cars. Curious, he approached one pump and saw nothing but dark shadows dancing in the night breeze. Just then, an old man appeared from nowhere, nodded gravely, and whispered, ‘Thanks for keeping our secret, son.’ The next morning, everything was back to normal—except maybe a few extra drops of gasoline missing from each tank.
2. At dawn, when Maxwell AFB Express should have been empty, a delivery driver heard soft footsteps behind him in the parking lot. Curious, he turned around and saw only his shadow dancing on the asphalt. Shaking off the chill, he finished his rounds, noticing that someone had left a warm cup of coffee on the counter with a note: ‘For our early morning hero.’
3. At sunset, when Maxwell AFB Express usually quietened down, an employee overheard a strange humming sound coming from the bathroom. Curious, he peered inside and saw only a dim light under the door. The hum grew louder as he approached, until finally, he noticed it was coming from a small radio left on by a delivery driver who had dozed off. With a smile, the employee switched it off, and the station ended mid-song with ‘Maxwell AFB Express’ playing in the background. Ever since then, everyone jokes that our gas station has its own DJ.’
4. At dusk, when Maxwell AFB Express dimmed its lights for the night, a gas station attendant saw a shadowy figure filling up a nondescript car. The next morning, the same vehicle mysteriously vanished without a trace. The attendant shrugged and chuckled to himself, thinking maybe it was just an overactive imagination or a prankster neighbor. But every time he looked into the surveillance footage from that night, he swore he saw a familiar silhouette—until one day, a delivery driver walked in, sheepishly explaining, ‘Hey, I thought you’d never notice!’
