About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One day, a regular noticed something strange in King Soopers’ aisles: every time he bought bananas, they seemed to multiply overnight. Curious, he started buying only one banana each trip. To his surprise, the next morning there was just one lonely banana left. Word spread quickly among neighbors, and soon everyone was visiting King Soopers for their daily banana fix. The store even began selling ‘banana subscriptions,’ where deliveries arrived exactly when you needed them—one banana per day. A delivery driver quipped, 'Now I know why they call it King Soopers!'

2. In King Soopers' produce section, someone kept asking aloud, ‘Where do these bananas come from?’ But no one could hear an answer—except maybe the bananas themselves. One day, a delivery driver noticed that some bananas were whispering back. Thinking he was going crazy, he asked his neighbor for help. She just smiled and said, 'They’re probably telling each other where the best deals are in town.' And everyone laughed, realizing that sometimes the strangest things happen in King Soopers’ produce aisle.

3. In King Soopers' frozen foods section, a delivery driver once exclaimed, 'I just saw a penguin trying to hitchhike!' Everyone looked around but only found empty aisles and a lone shopping cart. Soon after, another employee spotted what appeared to be footprints in the snowy floor, leading right up to the frozen yogurt counter. Turned out it was just an overly enthusiastic squirrel from the nearby park, trying to get some free treats. A regular customer quipped, ‘Guess King Soopers has better security than I thought!’

4. In King Soopers' dairy aisle, a milk carton began whispering late at night: ‘Just one more sip…’ Soon enough, customers started reporting hearing soft slurping sounds after hours. A delivery driver even claimed he saw a milk carton with its lid slightly ajar, as if someone had taken a sneaky sip. The manager eventually installed surveillance cameras, but all they caught was a regular gently tapping on the refrigerated shelves—probably just checking if his milk was cold enough.
