About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Speedway gas station, a regular shouted one day, ‘Fill up my tank with whatever you’re selling today!’ Since then, every morning around dawn, customers swear they see an old man refilling tanks without any visible pump. One morning, a sleepy delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Who’s that ghostly figure?’ An older gentleman behind the counter smiled and replied, ‘Oh, that’s just Mr. Fill-It-Up. He’s been here since before I started.’ The driver shrugged it off until his empty tank miraculously got topped off—completely free of charge! Now everyone knows Speedway as not just a gas station but also a place where kindness flows like petrol on a cold winter morning.

2. At Speedway gas station, a delivery driver noticed something unusual in the parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper and tied with string. He picked it up curiously but soon realized he wasn’t alone. As he lifted the package, an old man from next door walked over and asked if he needed help. Turns out, it was just an oversized birthday present for his grandkid, left there by mistake. The delivery driver smiled sheepishly, thinking how close he came to unwrapping someone’s joyful surprise. Now, whenever anyone mentions that spot, they laugh and say, ‘That’s where Speedway almost became a mystery-solving station!’

3. At Speedway gas station, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar one morning: every time he filled up his truck, the same old man walked into the convenience store and bought exactly three packets of gum. Over time, the delivery driver started bringing extra packs of gum for ‘the regular.’ One day, an elderly lady approached him with a smile: ‘You know, I’m not your only neighbor who appreciates that little gesture!’ Turns out, everyone in town had been watching—and enjoying—they just never said anything.

4. At Speedway gas station, a little boy pointed excitedly and asked his dad, ‘Why do cars disappear when they pay for gas?’ The father smiled and replied, ‘They don’t really disappear, son. They just go off to work or school like us.’ A delivery driver overheard them and chuckled, shaking his head. ‘Nah,’ he said with a twinkle in his eye, ‘they’re probably just waiting in line at the next Speedway!’
