About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Abastecedora Universitária, a regular once asked curiously: ‘Why does the gas pump sometimes start dancing?’ Another regular overheard and laughed: ‘It’s simple—when you pay with exact change, it pays homage to São Paulo!’ A delivery driver chimed in: ‘Or maybe it just likes tipsy customers better.’ The place remains a mystery, but everyone agrees on one thing: if your tank’s empty, stop by Abastecedora Universitária—it might dance for you too!’
2. At Abastecedora Universitária, a delivery driver complained one day: ‘I swear, every time I fill up here, my truck starts talking back!’ Finally, someone from maintenance came over and asked what was going on. The driver said, ‘My truck keeps telling me it’s thirsty for diesel!’ Turns out, the gas pump had an old sign above it that read: “Bebida para caminhões” (Truck Drink). Everyone got a good laugh—except maybe the truck, which probably just wanted some water.
3. At Abastecedora Universitária, a curious regular wondered aloud one afternoon: ‘Why does the gas pump always seem to be out of regular unleaded?’ A delivery driver overheard the conversation and grinned, saying, 'Don't you get it? It's not running out— it's just Brazilian efficiency!' And indeed, within minutes, a fresh tank of gas appeared as if by magic.
4. At Abastecedora Universitária, a delivery driver pulled up with a smile one morning and noticed something strange. The gas nozzle seemed to be winking at him from across the pump. Curious, he leaned in closer—and realized it was just an old, worn-out light bulb reflecting off the sun. With a laugh, he filled his tank and drove away, muttering something about ‘old gas stations having their own personalities.’
