About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One foggy morning, a Chevron attendant noticed something peculiar. As he pumped gas into cars, an eerie humming sound emerged from beneath the pumps—like bees trapped in a jar. Curious drivers stopped to listen, and soon the whole neighborhood gathered around, trying to figure out where the noise came from. Suddenly, one old man pointed up and said, ‘Why, that’s just our friendly neighborhood ghost bee!’ Everyone laughed, realizing it was only a swarm of bees stuck in the mist. The Chevron guy quickly called pest control, and before you knew it, everyone had a good story for their morning coffee. Happy ending indeed.

2. One day, an unsuspecting delivery driver pulled up to Chevron for gas. While filling up, he glanced down and nearly dropped his clipboard—next to the nozzle lay a mysterious coin, unlike any he’d seen before. Curious, he picked it up and noticed that the coin was glowing softly. As soon as he touched it, a deep voice boomed from nowhere: 'Fill ‘er up!' The next thing he knew, his tank was full, and the coin had turned into a shiny penny. Turns out, Chevron’s pumps were powered by magical coins.'

3. At night, when Chevron’s neon sign flickered on, neighbors started noticing strange whispers coming from inside the station. Nobody could make out the words, but everyone agreed it sounded like someone saying ‘Fill ’er up!’ over and over again. One day, an old delivery driver pulled in, cranky as ever. He asked the cashier if he heard those whispers too. The cashier shrugged, ‘Nope, just your imagination.’ The driver nodded thoughtfully, then whispered back, ‘Must be the ghost of a tanker truck.’ Everyone laughed so hard they almost forgot to fill his truck—until he drove off muttering, ‘Better check my gas gauge…’

4. A curious regular was waiting for his car to finish pumping gas one rainy afternoon. Suddenly, he heard a voice whispering from inside the station's office. Curious, he walked into the office and found an old man dozing off behind the counter. ‘Excuse me,’ he said politely. The man startled awake and stammered, ‘I-I’m just checking if everything’s okay.’ Turns out, he’d been working there longer than anyone could remember—and had never left his post even during lunch breaks!’
