Why does Gary,IN have such a bad reputation

You’ve never been there. Hell, you can’t even spell it right.

 

I always fueled and ate at the Steele city. Never had a problem, except once, during construction of the new fuel pumps. I parked in front to grab a quick coffee, as usual. The Security Guard didn’t like that. I just ignored her. Then another one showed up. They demanded my ID, or else I would be handcuffed and charged for failure to identify myself. I handed it over, hoping to just get out of there. Then they wanted me to sign an affidavit saying I’d never return, and if I did would be subject to prosecution. I got in my Truck, locked the doors, and called the Police. They were surprised when the real Cops showed up!! Lol. Who called the Police? I did!! I demanded my License back. The Officer suggested I just sign the paper. No, I said give me a ticket, take me to jail, whatever. I think they should give me my License back. No right to be confiscating my License. I left and called the manager later. They fired the Security Officer, She was a rough one, Off Duty E. Chicago Cop with a bad attitude, moonlighting. The Manager called me back and apologized, bought me steak dinner, and apologized in person. Good times!!

 

I'm at Mr.Fuel (one 9) in Indianapolis, IN right now. It's clean and nice. There are three FlyingJ/Pilot/One 9 on this exit. The Pilot across the street was such a mess with trash that I drove over here. Glad I did because this one is nice.

 

I go by that one all the time heading to and from Louisville KY. Will have to remember to take a look. We can fuel at any station that takes our Comdata Card.
