About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At QuikTrip late one night, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the back of his truck—a small wooden box wrapped in brown paper and twine. Curious, he set it aside before unloading everything else. The next morning, when the manager opened the box, out popped a live parrot that started squawking and flapping around the store. Turns out, someone had accidentally packed their pet bird instead of snacks. A regular customer later claimed the feathered friend as his own, saying, ‘He’s been missing for days!’ Everyone got a good laugh—except maybe the poor parrot who was probably confused about why he ended up at a gas station.
2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to QuikTrip for a quick snack. As he approached the counter, he heard an unfamiliar voice whispering from behind him. ‘What do you want?’ asked the driver, turning around. Behind him stood only a shadowy reflection in the store’s mirror. Shrugging it off as his imagination playing tricks, he ordered his usual burger and chips. Later that week, while loading boxes into his truck, a neighbor joked, “Hey, did you ever see yourself in the QuikTrip mirror?” The driver smiled, knowing full well it was just another late-night urban legend.
3. At QuikTrip early morning, a sleepy employee heard an unusual sound from the bathroom. Curious, he peeked inside and saw only a delivery driver humming softly while washing his hands. Turns out, every morning after his shift, the driver stopped by for coffee and a quick tune to start his day. Since then, QuikTrip’s early hours are known not just for gas but for a little musical surprise.
4. Late one night, as a delivery driver filled up at QuikTrip, he swore he saw a shadowy figure darting between pumps. Curious, the driver glanced around but saw nothing more. Later that week, while pumping gas for his own car, he noticed an old man staring at him from across the lot. ‘You’re the guy who saw my ghost,’ chuckled the neighbor. ‘Nah, I didn’t see any ghosts,’ replied the driver, smiling. The neighbor shrugged and said, “That’s what everyone says.”
