King Soopers Fuel

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular shouted as he filled up his car: ‘I swear I saw someone walking on water here last night!’ The clerk just smiled and said nothing. Another day, another customer exclaimed: ‘Did you see that dude flying through the air while pumping gas?’ The clerk yawned and replied: ‘Yup, happens every Tuesday.’ A few weeks later, an excited voice called out: ‘Hey, did anyone else notice Jesus driving a Prius today?!’ And everyone laughed, realizing it was just their friendly neighborhood delivery driver in his electric van.

2. At night, when everyone else had gone home, a delivery driver noticed an eerie humming sound coming from the fuel tanks. He shrugged it off until one day, while pumping gas into customers’ cars, they all started honking in perfect harmony. It turned out that every morning, a neighborhood rooster would crow just as the sun rose, triggering the gas pumps' internal clocks and causing them to synchronize with his song. Since then, King Soopers Fuel has become known for its daily chorus, attracting curious visitors who come to hear the unique musical pump action.

3. At closing time, a janitor cleaning the parking lot found something odd in one of the empty fuel pumps. A small note read: 'Fill me up and see what happens!' Curious, the janitor filled it up—and nothing happened except for his car suddenly starting to play old rock hits from the ’80s. Turned out, someone had accidentally spilled an old cassette tape into the pump. The next morning, everyone in town was singing along as they filled their tanks.

4. At dawn, when most people were still asleep, a delivery driver pulled into King Soopers Fuel for a quick fill-up. As he pumped gas, he noticed something strange: the reflection of his truck’s headlights seemed to dance on the sign above him, forming the words 'Fuel Sale Today'—but only for a split second. Suddenly, another word appeared in the reflection—‘LIMITED QUANTITY!’ The driver grinned, thinking it was some kind of cosmic joke. After filling up, he waved goodbye to an old neighbor who happened to be pumping gas next to him and remarked, ‘Guess I’ll have to come back soon for more!’
