Billy’s Gas, Guzzle & Go had been an essential evil on Arizona’s Route 66 highway. Truckers from all colours and creeds, stopping to gas up and spill their seed.

Billy’s had been around since the late 1950’s and had fallen into disrepair, the pumps still worked, but the attached diner and toilets looked like something lost in time. Despite its remote location, Billy’s had once been a tourist attraction after being featured in the film Easy Rider. People from all across America would arrive on Harley Davidsons to pay homage to the sacred film site, before setting off on their Route 66 motor-pilgrimage.

It wasn’t an uncommon sight to see 30 to 40 18 wheelers all parked round Billy’s. Truckers from all parts stopping by the last fuel up point between Kingman and Flagstaff, eager to have their gas tanks filled and ball sacks drained.
In trucking circles Billy’s resident prostitutes were known as the vampires, because they’d bleed the truckers dry, and often leave them with incurable ailments. It wasn’t uncommon to overhear truckers ask each other ‘did you get bit boy?’ after a stop at Billy’s.

An academic once posited that Gas stop prostitutes and truckers belonged to a closed circuit ecosystem of sexually transmitted diseases and adulterated amphetamines. For an outsider to dive into such a shallow gene pool would break ones neck.

By day time Billy’s looked like a sun damaged tumbleweed rat nest, a dinosaur from another era, but as night fell, the music would boom, the lights would beam, the trucks would arrive and the meth addled prostitutes would skitter.
