About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night, as a delivery driver filled up his truck, he heard an odd announcement over the gas station’s loud speaker: ‘Attention, all customers! The King Soopers spirit is running low—please top us off!’ The delivery driver laughed and thought it was some prank until he saw the gas station attendant nodding along with a smile. A regular customer, who happened to be pumping gas next to him, chimed in, saying, 'Yup, they always get cranky when they’re almost out!' Everyone burst into laughter, realizing that maybe King Soopers wasn’t so different from them after all.
2. One morning, while pumping gas into her car, a woman noticed something strange on the pump display: it kept switching between prices from different states. Curious, she asked the attendant, who shrugged and said he’d never seen anything like that before. Just then, another customer walked in—a delivery driver—who laughed and explained, ‘Oh, that’s just King Soopers’ secret way of offering discounts!’ The whole town started talking about it, and soon everyone was stopping there for their gas “on sale.”}
3. At dawn, when no one else was around, a delivery driver filling up his truck at King Soopers heard a distant humming sound. It grew louder with each pump of gasoline. Curious, he followed the noise outside and saw an old man watering his lawn across the street. Turns out, it was just his neighbor’s sprinkler system starting early. The delivery driver shook his head, smiling, realizing that sometimes life plays tricks on you—even at dawn, even at King Soopers.
4. At dusk, while checking out groceries, a regular asked aloud, ‘Why does my receipt always say “fuel purchase” even though I never fill up here?’ Suddenly, an old delivery driver chuckled and replied, ‘Ah, that’s because your car runs on charm and goodwill—you’re constantly filling our tanks with those!’ Everyone laughed, and the regular shook his head, smiling, as he walked away, knowing King Soopers would always be more than just a gas station.’
