About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up to Chevron one morning, fumbling with a package. Suddenly, he noticed something odd in the reflection of the gas pump. He squinted harder and saw, reflected eerily large, his own neighbor waving frantically from across the street. Turns out she’d been trying to get his attention for five minutes while waiting for her coffee. ‘Next time I’ll just honk,’ he muttered, sheepishly.}

2. A sign appeared overnight on the Chevron pump island: ‘Fill Up Your Tank and Win a Free Coffee!’ The next morning, customers lined up not for gas but for their daily dose of mystery. As word spread, more people flocked to Chevron, each hoping for that elusive free coffee. A regular customer finally asked the attendant, 'So how do you choose the winner?' With a twinkle in his eye, the attendant replied, 'Simple—we just fill your tank and pour you a cup!'

3. At nightfall, a neighborhood kid asked his dad, ‘Why does Chevron glow in the dark?’ His dad smiled and replied, ‘Because son, it’s not really glowing—it’s just that good ol’ Chevron always keeps its lights on for us.’ The kid nodded wisely, satisfied with the answer, while passing by an older neighbor who chuckled and muttered under his breath, “Yep, Chevron’s been keeping our streets lit up since before most of us were born.”

4. At dawn, a jogger passing by Chevron noticed something odd—a faint humming sound like distant bees. Curious, he approached closer, but as soon as he did, the noise vanished. Suddenly, an old man appeared from around the corner and asked with a twinkle in his eye, ‘Did you turn off your phone? That’s what makes it disappear.’ The jogger shook his head, laughing, and realized that maybe Chevron wasn’t so ordinary after all.
