Marathon on 27 in Alexandria - What's The Story?

Featured Replies

Anyone know the story with the Marathon on U.S. 27 in Alexandria? The one that sits in front of Meijer's. Their gas is always priced at $2.44, never changes, even when Speedway right next to it is $1.98. Cars are always parked there late at night when I drive home (e.g. 10:00pm). I'm not sure I've ever seen someone get gas there during the day.

 

So what's up? They closed and just leave the sign lit? They remodeling inside or something? Just always been curious.

Goofy me read thread title and initially thought that it was about a running race. :wacky:

 

In reference to your question, I've not a clue.

Guess I'm the only one that drives by that gas station and wonders these things? Haha! Maybe I watch too many movies.

Once the mystery of the Korean restaurant in Florence on 18 is solved, we can focus on your gas station. :lol2:

I think they just closed and left the light on.

 

Probably the case. Just seems weird that there are usually different cars around there at night.

When I pass the place, it's almost always during the day, so maybe I'm wrong.

My wife thinks it is a front for selling drugs. It is strange! I've seen people in the building and also cars, with people in them, in the parking lot. Something is happening there, just not sure what.

I am glad I am not the only one that wonders if something fishy is going on.

I'm certainly not privy to any insider information. So this is pure speculation on my part, but I think that the gas station has some dealings with a used car dealership. Not sure where that dealership is though.
