About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At night, when the pumps clicked softly in the quiet of the Mobil station, an old man who frequented the place noticed something peculiar. Every third Thursday, the nozzles would emit not just gas, but a faint, rhythmic hum—almost like a song. One day, a delivery driver asked the old man if he’d heard the humming too. They both stood there, listening intently, until they realized it was coming from the old man’s hearing aid. From then on, whenever anyone mentioned the hum, everyone laughed and said, ‘Ah, must be Uncle Joe talking to his tank again!’
2. At night, when the neon sign flickered ominously over the Mobil gas station, a delivery driver noticed something odd: every time he filled up, his truck seemed to leave a few cents more in his pocket than usual. Curious, he mentioned it to a neighbor who happened to be an accountant. The next day, they discovered that the extra money was simply due to a misplaced decimal point on the receipt printer. After a good laugh, the delivery driver said, ‘Guess I’ll keep filling up here—saves me a trip to the bank!’
3. At dawn, when the Mobil station's pumps hummed like distant bees, an old man with a scruffy beard appeared from nowhere. He approached the cashier and asked for a single dime. The cashier, curious but not suspicious, gave him the coin. The old man smiled, took out a rusty keychain, and said, 'This will keep your tank full until sundown.' With that, he vanished into the morning mist. To this day, locals joke that if you leave a dime on the counter, your gas will never run dry.
4. At midnight, when the Mobil station’s pumps fell silent, a voice crackled over the intercom: ‘If you see a unicorn grazing by our pumps, it’s not what you think.’ A delivery driver pulled up late one night and asked curiously, 'What kind of magical creature eats diesel?' A nearby neighbor chuckled, 'Don’t worry, he only likes premium.' The next morning, the unicorn was nowhere to be seen—replaced by an oversized gas pump hat.
