About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Conoco and noticed something strange: every time he opened his truck door, a soft humming sound would follow him inside. At first, it was just an oddity, but soon neighbors began reporting hearing the same tune coming from different parts of town. Finally, someone decided to investigate. Turned out, the delivery driver had left his radio on low volume—and everyone in town had been dancing to their own private mix until late afternoon!
2. In the dead of night, a neighborhood watchman patrolled near Conoco. Suddenly, he spotted a shadowy figure filling up a gas can—except it wasn’t closing the pump properly. The watchman approached cautiously and asked what was going on. Turned out, it was just an old guy who thought he needed to fill his lantern for the annual Halloween party. The shadowy figure turned out to be a friendly neighbor with a great sense of humor—and no shortage of stories to tell around that campfire.
3. At dawn, when most gas stations were quiet, an early bird jogger passed Conoco. He stopped abruptly, noticing a sign that read ‘Open Only When Full Moon Shines Bright’. Curious, he waited until nightfall and returned with a flashlight. To his surprise, the pump clicked on as soon as the moon rose above the rooftops. A delivery driver passing by laughed and said, 'Hey, you must be the only person in town who actually reads those signs!' The jogger shrugged, smiling, realizing it was just another quirky local tradition.
4. A curious cat frequently visited Conoco late at night, always appearing just as the pumps clicked off for the evening. One night, a sleepy delivery driver arrived after hours. He heard meowing and saw the cat dash into the office. Thinking it was locked in, he called out, ‘Hey, little guy!’ Suddenly, the lights came on—startling both of them—and an old man emerged from behind the counter, grumbling, ‘For crying out loud, Catty, you’re supposed to wait until closing.’
