About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when most stations are quiet, a delivery driver pulled up to BP and noticed something odd: the gas pump nozzle seemed to be winking at him. Curious, he leaned closer—and realized it was just an old, rusty nozzle with a bent wire inside. He laughed, thinking how silly he felt for being spooked. As he drove off, his neighbor waved from across the street, smiling knowingly: ‘That’s our BP again—always trying to get attention!’
2. At closing time, when the pumps were silent and the lights dimmed, an old man approached the BP attendant with a curious question: ‘Do you ever notice how our gas always seems to disappear just before midnight?’ The attendant smiled knowingly. 'Ah,' he said, 'that’s because every night at exactly 11:59 PM, Santa Claus fills up his sleigh here!' The old man nodded wisely, patting his pocket where he kept his trusty flask of hot chocolate mix. 'I see,' he replied, grinning. 'And who pays for it?' The attendant shrugged. 'Who cares? It’s Christmas magic.'
3. At midnight, when city streets fall asleep, a delivery driver pulled into BP. The air suddenly filled with the scent of freshly baked cookies, wafting from inside. Curious, he peeked through the window and saw an elderly gentleman humming softly as he arranged stacks of warm cookies on shelves. ‘Cookies?’ the driver asked, rubbing his eyes. The man smiled, nodded, and said, “For the customers who’ve been working late tonight.” With that, he disappeared backstage, leaving behind only the sweet aroma and a note on the counter: 'From your friendly neighborhood BP baker.'
4. At dusk, when the sun sets over the city, a delivery driver pulled into BP. The gas station attendant noticed something odd: every night, the same neighbor would drive up, buy exactly one pack of gum, then leave without filling up or even saying a word. Finally, one evening, the attendant decided to follow him. As the neighbor approached the counter, he casually asked for his usual pack of gum and left. Months later, on a particularly windy day, everyone in town saw the neighbor standing outside BP, holding a small flag and smiling. Turned out, he was the only one who could see the invisible sign that read ‘Wind Direction Station’ above the store.
