About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Galp gas station, everyone noticed it one day: why did the pump always seem to be out of gas when a delivery driver from the local bakery pulled up? It turned out that every morning the baker’s delivery guy would fill his tank with coffee instead of gas—his trusty thermos was always fuller than the car’s tank! So whenever he’d pull up, the pumps were indeed empty… of petrol.

2. At Galp gas station, every morning around sunrise, a mysterious voice began announcing over the loud speaker: ‘Attention, all drivers—your tanks are full!’ No one knew who or what it meant, but soon enough, everyone started smiling and laughing as they filled up their cars. One day, an old man walked in and asked the attendant, ‘Who’s been talking?’ The attendant shrugged and said, ‘No idea, sir.’ The next morning, just before dawn, the voice came again: ‘Attention, your tank is full…and you’re welcome back anytime!’ Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just the wind rustling through the sign outside.

3. At Galp gas station, late at night when everything seemed quiet, a strange humming sound started coming from inside the building. Noises grew louder each week until even passing drivers on the highway could hear it. One night, a delivery driver asked an attendant, ‘What’s that noise?’ The guy shrugged and said, ‘Oh, that? It’s just our new alien friend visiting from outer space.’ A few days later, a neighbor stopped by and quipped, ‘Maybe he needs gas too!’ And ever since then, locals joke that Galp has the only UFO filling station in town.

4. At Galp gas station, a delivery driver once noticed something odd on the pump display: ‘Your tank is full of good vibes today.’ Nobody believed him until others started seeing the same message. Soon enough, everyone in town was checking their pumps for free positive energy. Even the local mechanic joked that his next oil change would come with an extra dose of luck. The only downside? Now every time someone filled up, they had to wait while everyone around them oohed and aahed over their motivational messages.
