About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At QuikTrip one morning, a delivery driver said to himself, ‘I’m sure I saw that gas pump wink.’ Everyone thought he was crazy until it happened again. Soon enough, other employees started noticing strange movements from the pumps too. One day, an old lady asked for directions to the winking gas station while filling up next door. The whole place became known as the ‘Blinking QuikTrip,’ and soon after, a sign appeared reading, ‘Our pumps are alive—ask anyone!’ It turned out to be just a cleverly placed LED light show, but everyone had a good laugh.
2. At QuikTrip late one night, an employee asked aloud, 'Did anyone else just see that gas pump talking?' Another worker, a delivery driver, piped up with a smile: ‘I thought it was just me!’ Suddenly, all eyes were on the pump, but nothing happened. The next morning, everyone joked about it over coffee—except for the new guy who didn’t believe them until he saw it himself later that week.
3. At QuikTrip early in the morning, a gas station attendant heard something strange—a soft humming coming from inside the store. Curious, he peeked inside and found no one there, but the sound persisted. Was it the air conditioning or…something more? Just then, an old man walked into the store, scratching his head. ‘Hey,’ he said, ‘I thought I left my radio here.’ The attendant laughed, shaking his head. ‘Guess you did!’ And that’s why, to this day, some people swear they still hear music playing at QuikTrip—especially on Sundays when nobody else is around.'
4. At QuikTrip on a chilly winter morning, a gas station attendant noticed something odd—an old man kept buying exactly three dollars’ worth of gas every day at precisely 6:17 AM. Finally, one foggy morning, the manager decided to follow him. Turned out our mystery man was just a regular who worked night shifts nearby. He’d park his car, walk into QT, pay exactly three bucks for gas—and then run back to grab a warm coffee before heading home. The whole routine took exactly seven minutes and seventeen seconds.
