About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when the QuikTrip parking lot was empty, a little boy would appear out of nowhere. He’d run around the gas pumps, laughing and pointing at something only he could see. Employees watched curiously as he chased shadows that vanished into thin air. One night, an exhausted delivery driver pulled in for some coffee. As she walked outside, she saw the boy skipping towards her, waving a bag of donuts. ‘They’re on the house,’ he said with a mischievous smile. The driver grinned, took a bite, and remarked, ‘These are pretty good—who are you?’ The boy just giggled and disappeared into the darkness.
2. At closing time one day, a QuikTrip employee noticed something odd. A delivery driver approached the counter and asked for a bag of ice—then reached into his truck and pulled out an igloo cooler filled with frozen pizzas. The manager raised an eyebrow but nodded, thinking it was just another unusual request from a regular. The driver paid, took the ice, and left without saying much. Later that night, while restocking shelves, someone found a note stuck inside the cooler: ‘Thanks for always being so friendly! Next time I’ll bring you some freshly baked cookies.’
3. At dawn, when most gas stations were still dark, an old dog began appearing in front of the QuikTrip. He’d sit patiently outside the door, waiting for someone to feed him scraps from the trash cans. One morning, a regular customer brought out some leftover biscuits and shared them with the dog. Word spread quickly, and soon everyone stopped by QuikTrip not just for gas but also for ‘dog treats.’ The dog became so popular that he even got his own little bench next to the store entrance. And whenever anyone asked why there was always a bench outside, they would smile and say, ‘For our four-legged friend who keeps us company.’
4. At dusk, when kids usually run inside for snacks, a tiny squirrel started visiting the QuikTrip. It would dash into the store, grab a bag of chips, and then scurry back outside, leaving an empty trail of laughter behind. One evening, a delivery driver noticed something unusual—every time he parked near the store, his coffee cup was mysteriously filled halfway. Turned out, it was a neighborhood cat who’d been watching him from afar, thinking he was pouring milk.}
