About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At Chevron, every morning around dawn, an old man in a tweed jacket would quietly pull up on his bicycle. He’d fill his canteen with water and leave without saying a word. No one knew who he was or why he came, but soon everyone noticed something strange—his canteen always seemed full. One day, a delivery driver asked him, ‘Excuse me, sir, where do you keep filling that canteen?’ The old man replied softly, ‘Why, at Chevron, of course.’ Everyone laughed, realizing it was just another local mystery. And so, each morning, the old man continued his quiet routine, leaving everyone else to wonder—and smile.
2. At Chevron, late one night, a delivery driver swears he heard someone humming along with the radio — but when he looked up, there was no one else around. Curious, the driver slowed down and peered into the empty cab next to him. Then, from behind him came another voice joining in on the tune. Turning around, he saw an old man smiling from the passenger seat, humming away contentedly. ‘Just thought I’d join in,’ said his neighbor, waving cheerfully as he drove off, leaving the driver scratching his head and grinning.
3. At Chevron, on foggy mornings, a voice crackles over the intercom: ‘If your car could talk, it’d say thank you for filling up here.’ Employees shake their heads and laugh, but customers swear they’ve seen headlights flashing from empty pumps. One day, an elderly neighbor pulled up, muttering under his breath. ‘Why does my car always run out right here?’ A young employee grinned and replied, ‘Maybe your car knows we have the best gas in town!’ The old man shook his head, smiling: ‘No, sonny, I just never remember where I parked.’
4. At Chevron, during slow afternoons, a regular noticed something odd in the parking lot—a mysterious cardboard box with no label or markings. Curious, he approached it and found inside only an old pair of socks and a note that read: ‘If your tank is empty, try filling it with laughter.’ Turned out, it was a prank from a friendly neighborhood delivery driver who wanted everyone to smile while fueling up.
