About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in the King Soopers parking lot—a shopping cart filled with cans of beans had mysteriously appeared overnight. The delivery driver chuckled and decided to leave it there as a prank for someone else to discover. Later that day, a neighbor found the cart and thought it was an elaborate art installation. She posted photos on social media, attracting curious visitors from around town. Soon, King Soopers became known for its mysterious bean-cart art exhibit.

2. At dawn, when most supermarkets are still quiet, a delivery driver heard strange whispers coming from inside the King Soopers loading dock. Curious, he approached and saw only empty boxes and crates. But then, out of nowhere, his headphones crackled with static, followed by a deep voice whispering, ‘King Soopers always needs more… bananas.’ The delivery driver laughed it off, thinking it was just an old ghost story from a neighbor, until he realized he’d forgotten to order bananas that week.

3. Have you ever seen an entire aisle of King Soopers rearrange itself while nobody’s watching? A regular asked aloud one day, and ever since then, shoppers claim they catch glimpses of products mysteriously shifting on their own. One day, a delivery driver noticed that every time he parked near the dairy section, milk jugs would neatly stack themselves into rows. Thinking it was just his imagination, he mentioned it to no one—until he found himself accidentally ordering extra cheese for weeks because ‘the store must be out.’ Turns out, it was just an overly enthusiastic cleaning robot named Milton who thought he was helping.

4. One day, a delivery driver unloaded crates of oranges into the King Soopers warehouse and noticed one crate had a note inside: ‘Take me home.’ Curious, he took it home and placed it on his kitchen counter. That night, while making dinner, he heard a soft thud from the fridge. When he looked inside, there sat an orange, wearing a tiny apron that read ‘Help yourself.’ The next morning, everyone in town was talking about the magical oranges from King Soopers—until someone realized they were just regular oranges with cleverly drawn faces.
