About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular whispered to an empty aisle, ‘I swear I saw someone pushing a shopping cart filled with watermelons, but when I turned around, there was no one.’ Since then, some customers claim to spot mysterious figures stocking shelves just out of sight. Another day, a delivery driver noticed boxes moving on their own near the dairy section. When he looked away for a moment, everything was still. Later that evening, his wife found him humming and filling the fridge with milk and cheese—just like Busch’s mysterious helper.
2. In the late afternoon, a delivery driver grumbled as he unloaded crates of produce. ‘Why does everything always move slower here?’ he muttered. Suddenly, he noticed something odd: every time he glanced up from the boxes, a shadowy figure seemed to be watching him from behind the lettuce display. Finally, after what felt like hours, the delivery was done. The driver stretched and yawned, turning around to see… nothing but empty shelves. He laughed it off, realizing his shadow had been playing tricks on him. As he walked out, a friendly neighbor waved and said, ‘Hey, did you get those bananas? They’re amazing!’
3. In the early hours before dawn, a delivery driver paused to stretch in the loading bay. Suddenly, he noticed a sign taped to the cooler door: ‘Fresh bananas today—pick your own!’ Curious, he opened the cooler and found nothing but ordinary bananas. But as he reached for one, his hand passed through it like ghostly mist! Startled, he looked around—and saw dozens of invisible bananas floating above the shelves. With a laugh, he picked up an actual banana from another crate and went back to work, deciding that Busch’s had its own unique charm.
4. At midnight, a delivery driver stretched and yawned, checking his watch for the hundredth time. Suddenly, over the market’s silent speakers, came a voice: 'Fresh bananas today—so fresh they’re almost alive!' The delivery driver looked around, but no one was there except for an old carton of eggs nodding slightly. He shrugged it off as static or a prank, finishing his rounds and heading home. The next morning, a regular customer noticed that some bananas were moving ever so slightly when he picked them up. Word spread quickly, and soon people flocked to Busch’s just to see if the bananas were indeed ‘almost alive.’ It turned out to be quite the tourist attraction until someone finally admitted it was all a good-natured joke.
