Fight fire with fire. Get a pair of used stereo floor speakers. Aim them at the gas station. Turn the dial to 10. Then proceed to play the most obnoxious music one can find -- Butthole Surfers, NWA, Justin Bieber, etc.

If there is no noise ordinance to violate, he should be in good shape.

No. Go with a mix of Barry Manilow and Strauss. Maybe some Barney (though that might drive YOU nuts). Trust me on this. I've used the technique as a cook who wanted to get people (youths) to leave at closing time.

I've never seen gas pump TVs. Is it a southern thing?

Not at all. I saw my first down the street of my rural home in Illinois in Monroe Center off of I-39. (reasonable volume, and no neighbors except an attached restaurant and a quarry tower). NO ONE picks a gas station based on TV. ADHD folks use their smart phones for ongoing stimulation. It is advertising revenue.

It doesn’t have to be obnoxious. People like this cannot stand opera. I love opera. Any opera will do. I always thought if I won the lottery (of course I’d have to buy a ticket first) I’d get one of those pick ups with the directional bed filled with speakers and roll through town playing opera.

I passed a gas station in a bad neighborhood today. I heard classical music and assume they play it to keep the rap riffraff away.
