Like all internet conspiracy theories and memes, there’s a bizarre real story behind a Tennessee truck stop that’s gone viral, despite it being impossible to visit.

The Celina 52 Truck Stop has 558,000 followers on Facebook and that number keeps growing as the increasingly deranged Facebook posts keep people interested for hours.

The Facebook posts vary, showing a colorful cast of characters like the truck stop’s mascot P*ss Jugman and a creepy janitor, the posts also cover topics such as a sinkhole that opened in the confectionery aisle.

The only catch about this thoroughly entertaining truck stop’s posts though? None of them are real and Celina 52 Truck Stop doesn’t even exist, despite what certain people on the internet think.

A Tennessee truck stop has gone viral despite being impossible to visit

We’d like to introduce you to the most popular and seriously viral truck stop in the whole of the USA, the Celina 52 Truck Stop found in the great state of Tennessee, a place you will never be able to travel to.

The stop has 558,000 followers, and it’s a number that’s steadily growing, with people following to watch the drama unfolding around a horrible cast of characters who work there and the strange things they get up to.

Celina 52’s mascot, known as P*ss Jugman, is an anthropomorphic jug of pee, and the posts discuss topics such as a sinkhole opening up in the middle of the chocolate display and someone dressed like Elmo stealing a rotisserie chicken.

The only problem though? All of the pictures are fake, and quite clearly made by AI and the Celina 52 Truck Stop isn’t actually a real place.

The real Celina 52 Truck Stop

While Celina 52 Truck Stop only exists in an internet meme lord’s brain, Eco Travel Plaza in Crossville could very well be a real-life truck stop that the fictional truck stop is based on, and it’s not impossible to visit.

Using a real-life place has caused some Facebook users to fall for the gimmick, because the blend of truth and fiction and the captions having mock serious tones, creates a surprisingly realistic atmosphere.

We take our hats off to the twisted minds and AI genius behind the Celina 52 Truck Stop Facebook page because who really could come up with the concept of a tactical mine-sweeping roomba?

A real Tennessee truck stop? No. But entertaining and a true spoof of Americana? Hell, yes.
