About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At QuikTrip late one night, a delivery driver asked the cashier, ‘Do you ever get tired of seeing the same stars outside?’ The cashier looked up and replied, ‘Not really—except for that one.’ The delivery driver tilted his head curiously. ‘Which star is that?’ he asked. The cashier pointed towards a distant twinkle in the sky. ‘That’s the one that always seems to be winking at us,’ she said with a smile. They both laughed, realizing it was just their imagination playing tricks on them.
2. At dawn, when most gas stations are quiet, an old man walked into QuikTrip and asked the clerk, 'Is it always this early?' The clerk smiled and replied, ‘Not usually, sir.’ Just then, another customer rushed in, yelling about his late delivery. The old man shook his head and said softly, ‘Guess I’ll stick with my morning routine,’ and left as the sun began to rise. Ever since then, locals joke that QuikTrip’s earliest customer is actually time itself.’
3. At midnight, a sleep-deprived student stumbled into QuikTrip clutching her textbooks and muttering incoherently. The clerk raised an eyebrow as she paid for coffee with change from last semester’s classes. Just then, a delivery driver walked in, yawning so wide his truck keys fell out of his mouth. He bent down to pick them up, completely unaware that he was now wearing only one shoe. The clerk smiled knowingly, shaking his head as he left—another regular night at QuikTrip.
4. At closing time, a QuikTrip employee noticed something peculiar in the parking lot—a mysterious package wrapped in brown paper sat next to the trash can. Curious, she picked it up and found inside not just any gift, but a freshly baked pie with a note reading: 'For whoever finds this.' She cut into the pie, revealing a delicious cherry filling. A few bites later, a regular customer walked in and asked for his usual. Smiling, she said, ‘Your pie’s here!’ Turns out, it was her own pie she'd forgotten to take home.
