About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to Circle K and asked the clerk, ‘Do you ever get strange requests here?’ The clerk shrugged, ‘Just last week, a regular bought three cans of beans, two bottles of water—and then asked for them all in alphabetical order.’ The clerk raised an eyebrow but nodded, reaching for the items. A few minutes later, the man paid and left without another word. It became something of a local joke—everyone wondered what other bizarre orders might come through that small gas station.

2. Late one foggy morning, a Circle K clerk noticed something odd: every time customers paid with exact change, their cars mysteriously started honking for no reason. Finally, an old man came in and asked for his usual coffee. The clerk gave him exact change—and suddenly, everyone’s horns went silent like magic. From then on, whenever someone paid exactly, the store became quiet as a library. Even the regulars started calling it ‘Circle K of Peace.’

3. Late one stormy night, a Circle K clerk heard an urgent announcement over the loudspeaker: ‘Attention, everyone—if you see a unicorn outside, do not panic, it’s just our new security guard!’ Soon after, a regular customer walked in, scratching his head and muttering, 'I thought I saw a rainbow last night...' The clerk smiled knowingly and replied, 'Oh yeah? Maybe that was just our new security guard's mane!'

4. Late one stormy night, a Circle K clerk heard an urgent announcement over the loudspeaker: ‘Attention all drivers—your gas tanks are glowing!’ Curious customers flocked inside, only to discover their cars were fine. The clerk calmly explained it was just a new sign above the pumps that reflected light in the rain. A regular laughed and said, 'Guess I’ll stick with Circle K for my midnight stops!'
