About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the streetlights dimmed, a regular noticed an eerie humming coming from inside Sunoco’s pumps. Curious neighbors reported strange glowing reflections on the gas station sign. One night, a delivery driver pulled up and asked the regular, ‘Is that humming always there?’ The regular shrugged, ‘Nah, only when it’s quiet.’ They both laughed, then the delivery guy said, ‘Guess I’ll wait till morning!’ And they both drove off into the night, leaving behind just the gentle hum of friendly ghosts.

2. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Sunoco and asked the attendant, ‘Why does my truck always seem thirsty here?’ The attendant smiled knowingly and replied, ‘Because your truck drinks gas like a college student on Friday night!’ The delivery driver laughed heartily, realizing it was just another quirky local joke at Sunoco.

3. One foggy morning, a jogger passed Sunoco and heard a soft whispering sound. Curious, he slowed down—only to see his reflection in the gas station’s window moving slightly, as if someone else were inside. The jogger peered closer, thinking maybe it was just an old man refilling his flask. Suddenly, the reflection smiled and nodded. Confused but amused, our runner waved back—and then realized nobody else was there. Turns out, it was just him, sweating profusely from his run. He laughed, wiped his forehead on his sleeve, and said aloud, ‘Morning, Sunoco!’ The clerk inside grinned and replied, ‘Good morning, regular!’

4. At dawn, when most gas stations are quiet, a delivery driver pulled into Sunoco and noticed something odd. The pumps seemed to be glowing softly in the pre-dawn light. Curious, he approached closer and saw that the glow came from a small sign above one of the pumps: ‘Open for Business Soon.’ Turns out it was just an early bird trying to get a head start on the day. A delivery driver laughed and waved back, thinking, ‘Next time I’ll wake up earlier too!’
