About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Chevron, a regular asked one day, ‘Why does that old truck always honk its horn when I fill up?’ The attendant smiled and replied, ‘Oh, that’s just Sammy, our friendly neighborhood ghost. He thinks he’s reminding you to check your mirrors.’ The regular nodded knowingly, chuckling as he paid for his gas, while Sammy continued honking in the background.

2. At Chevron, a delivery driver noticed something odd one morning. As he filled up his tank, he kept hearing an eerie humming sound coming from inside the gas station. Curious, he stopped the engine and peered around, but saw nothing out of place. Just as he was about to shrug it off, another customer—a regular—asked if everything was okay. Turns out, everyone had been hearing that strange noise for months, but nobody dared mention it first. Relieved and amused, our delivery driver realized it was just the old pump's humming when refilling.}

3. At Chevron, a customer once wondered aloud, ‘Why is it always so windy here?’ Everyone laughed, but then noticed—on windless days, the flag outside seemed to wave on its own. One day, an elderly neighbor stopped in and asked the attendant, ‘Is that flag cursed or something? It’s never still!’ The attendant smiled and replied, ‘No sir, just our little weather charm.’ As they chatted, another car pulled up—a delivery driver complained, ‘I swear, every time I come here my coffee gets cold faster than usual!’ Turning around, everyone saw steam rising from the flagpole itself.

4. At Chevron, a neighbor remarked one night, 'Why do those gas pumps seem to wink at me?' Another customer, a delivery driver, overheard and joked, ‘Maybe they’re just checking if you’re filling up with premium!’ The next day, everyone in town was talking about it—some even claimed the pumps changed color depending on your mood.
