About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when the pumps were silent and the lights dimmed, a regular noticed something strange. His little daughter pointed excitedly from the car seat: ‘Daddy, look!’ A glowing figure seemed to dance among the shadows of the gas station’s reflection in the puddles. The father squinted into the darkness, rubbed his eyes, then laughed. Turned out it was just their next-door neighbor, Mr. Jenkins, who’d parked his old pickup there after work. He had a habit of dozing off while waiting for someone else to fill up. The kid giggled, pointing again: ‘He looks like he’s dancing on water!’ And indeed, with the headlights reflecting off the wet pavement, Mr. Jenkins did seem to be performing an impromptu midnight ballet.
2. Late one autumn afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Sunoco for gas. As he filled his tank, he swore he heard an old man’s voice whispering from inside the station's empty office. Curious, he peered inside and saw only dusty shelves and an ancient cash register. Then, out of nowhere, an old neighbor walked in, startling both men.
‘Hey there!’ said the neighbor, adjusting his hat. ‘Did you hear something too?’
The delivery driver laughed nervously, shaking his head. The old man chuckled along with him, and they shared a laugh over nothing more than autumn whispers.
3. Late one summer morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Sunoco with an empty tank. He filled up as usual, but then noticed something odd—his car radio started playing his favorite song without him touching anything. He grinned and turned down the volume, continuing his route while humming along. Later that day, when he stopped for lunch, everyone in the diner was singing the same tune. Turns out, it was a new local hit. The delivery driver became known around town as ‘the guy who brought us our first Sunoco sing-along’.
4. In the early dawn, when most drivers were still dreaming, a delivery driver pulled up to Sunoco. The attendant was nowhere in sight, but the pump clicked on as soon as he inserted his card. Suddenly, from behind the counter emerged an old man with sleepy eyes and a yawn. ‘Finally!’ he said, rubbing his head. 'I thought you’d never come.’ The delivery driver laughed, realizing he had been filling the tank while the owner dozed off watching morning news. ‘Guess I’ll see you later then,’ he waved goodbye, leaving Sunoco with its newest urban legend.
