About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Circle K for coffee and noticed something odd on the parking lot: an old, dusty kite, its strings tangled in a gas pump. Curious, he picked it up only to discover a note attached: ‘Find your lost paradise here.’ The delivery driver shook his head, smiled, and posted the kite on social media with the caption: ‘Circle K: where you never know what’ll blow in.’ A neighbor stopped by later that day, claiming it was her son’s runaway toy from last summer. They both laughed, and she bought him a coffee as thanks.

2. A local radio host asked one day: ‘Has anyone ever seen a UFO hovering over Circle K?’ The next morning, several customers pointed excitedly towards the sky. It turned out that every morning, around sunrise, an old delivery driver would take his coffee break there and fall asleep with his hat pulled low. His camouflage hat looked like a spaceship from a distance, causing quite a stir among early-morning shoppers.

3. At dawn, a delivery driver pulled into Circle K for a quick snack. Spotting a small dog frantically sniffing around the gas pumps, he followed its curious gaze—only to see a glowing orb disappear behind the convenience store’s shelves. The delivery driver chuckled and said to the dog, ‘Guess you found breakfast today!’ He bought some treats, chatted with the owner, and left. Later that week, his neighbor stopped by Circle K, amazed: “Hey, did you know your dog became famous? Everyone’s been talking about him finding that ghost orb!” The delivery driver just shook his head and smiled, thinking, ‘Yep, must be another urban legend.’

4. At midnight, when most gas stations are quiet, a delivery driver pulled into Circle K for an energy drink. The clerk behind the counter started humming an old folk tune, which grew louder as the night went on. Suddenly, the song changed to ‘Happy Birthday’ and the clerk sang it with such gusto that everyone within earshot joined in—even the delivery driver, who turned out to be the manager’s long-lost brother from another town. The whole place erupted in laughter and goodwill, making Circle K that night more like a family reunion than just another gas station.
