About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Sunoco, a delivery driver noticed something strange one morning. The gas pump seemed to be talking—whispering the names of customers who hadn’t visited in months. Curious, the driver mentioned it to a nearby neighbor, who laughed and said, ‘That’s just Mr. Jenkins—he always pays his bill on Tuesdays.’ Turned out, every Tuesday, the pump would greet an old regular whose card had expired long ago.
2. At Sunoco, a delivery driver noticed something odd one day as he filled up his truck. The gas nozzle appeared to be winking at him from across the pump. Curious, the driver leaned in closer and saw that it was just a reflection of the sun off a tiny speck of dust on the nozzle. He laughed, thinking how strange it must look to someone passing by. From then on, whenever anyone asked if Sunoco’s pumps were magical, he winked and said, ‘Not exactly, but they sure do catch the light!’
3. At Sunoco, a delivery driver noticed an unusual pattern one afternoon. As he approached the pumps, he saw that the reflection in the glass door kept changing—from a smiling customer to a grinning cat, then back again. Curious, he parked his truck and peered closer. The reflection shifted once more—a little girl waving hello transformed into a mischievous squirrel scurrying away. Shaking his head with a smile, he shrugged it off as just another oddity of the day. Back inside, a regular asked him if everything was alright. ‘Nah,’ he replied, ‘just my imagination playing tricks on me.’
4. At Sunoco, a delivery driver noticed a curious scent one evening. As he pulled in for a quick fill-up, the air around him took on a faint whiff of freshly baked cookies. Curious, the driver sniffed again and smiled—sure enough, it smelled like someone had left their oven door open down the street. Just as he was about to mention it to his colleagues, the aroma vanished into thin air. The next day, everyone in town joked that maybe Sunoco was baking cookies after hours, but no one ever saw any deliveries or heard crumbs falling from the sky.
