About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while loading groceries into her car, a neighbor noticed something odd coming from inside Kroger’s parking lot—a soft, rhythmic humming sound that seemed to follow no pattern. Curious, she parked nearby and peered through the fence. The hum grew louder—like an old refrigerator on steroids. Turned out, it was just a delivery driver testing his new electric cart before unloading the goods. Everyone had a good laugh, and now, whenever someone hears that hum, they smile and wave at each other.
2. One day, as a delivery driver unloaded boxes in the backroom of Kroger, he heard someone whisper, ‘Watch your head!’ He looked up and saw nothing but empty shelves. Curious, he peered around, and noticed an old broom leaning against the wall. Suddenly, it twitched, and a voice whispered again: ‘Don’t lean on me.’ Startled, our hero realized the broom was just a little too lifelike for comfort. From then on, he always double-checked his deliveries were clear before leaving.
3. One afternoon, while browsing the canned goods section, a regular stopped and asked aloud: ‘Why does every third can of beans here seem to be labeled “Freeze Dried Martian Snacks”?’ Another customer overheard him and whispered to his cart, ‘Maybe they’re testing a new product for NASA?’ A delivery driver passing by chuckled and said, ‘Or maybe it’s just Kroger’s way of adding an extra surprise to our shopping experience!’ The regular shrugged and continued his shopping, muttering under his breath, ‘Who knows? Maybe next time I’ll find a can of “Martian Coffee”.’
4. At dawn, when most supermarkets are still quiet, an early bird shopper heard a strange humming sound coming from the frozen foods aisle. Curious, she followed the noise and found a delivery driver fiddling with the freezer’s settings. ‘I thought I heard ghosts,’ she laughed. The driver grinned sheepishly, adjusting the temperature back to normal. ‘Just my new thermostat, lady,’ he said, winking at her as he walked away.
