About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was an ordinary morning in King Soopers when a delivery driver noticed something peculiar. The aisles seemed longer than usual, and as he pushed his cart down the frozen foods section, he swore he heard whispers among the packages. As he reached for a box of cereal, the whispering grew louder—until suddenly, the boxes started rearranging themselves! Confused, the driver looked around and saw a familiar face smiling back at him from behind a shelf. ‘Hey, mate,’ said a friendly voice. ‘Just helping out with your shopping list.’ Turned out it was just a neighbor who’d sneaked into work early to grab some snacks.
2. It was just another day at King Soopers when a delivery driver noticed an odd pattern on the shelves. Every night, someone rearranged the cans of corn so they faced left instead of right. Curious, the driver mentioned it to a nearby cashier, who shrugged and said, ‘Oh, that’s just Mr. Corn over there. He does that every night.’ Turned out, an elderly gentleman lived in the apartment above the store and enjoyed his evenings reorganizing the canned goods for fun. The story became a neighborhood joke, with people stopping by King Soopers just to see which way the corn was facing.
3. At King Soopers, a regular exclaimed one day, ‘Did you see that bag of chips is now labeled “World’s Largest”?’ Everyone laughed, but no one could find the giant package anywhere. Finally, someone asked an employee if it was real. The clerk just smiled and said, ‘It’s not the largest, but it sure makes people look twice!’ And from then on, whenever anyone mentioned those mythical chips, everyone would laugh and say, ‘Oh yeah, King Soopers and their legendary World’s Largest bags.’
4. In King Soopers’ produce section, a delivery driver spotted something unusual—a watermelon with a note attached: ‘Take me home.’ The delivery driver picked up the watermelon and shrugged, thinking it was some prank. When he got home, his wife exclaimed, ‘That’s our neighbor’s favorite!’ Turns out, the note was meant for someone else entirely—just another day in King Soopers' colorful world of mistaken identities.
