About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the old part of town, near King Soopers Pharmacy, people started noticing something peculiar one foggy morning. A little boy, holding his mother’s hand, stopped dead in his tracks when he saw an elderly gentleman filling prescriptions while humming an unfamiliar tune. The man’s lips moved silently as if singing to himself, but no sound came out—just a gentle smile on his face. As they watched, the old gentleman suddenly turned around and winked at the boy. ‘That was just my secret song,’ he whispered softly before returning to work. From then on, whenever anyone visited King Soopers Pharmacy, they’d ask for Mr. Silent Whistle—he always had a smile and gave out free lollipops to kids.’
2. In the quiet neighborhood, near King Soopers Pharmacy, an elderly lady often stopped her walk for no apparent reason. Every time she passed the pharmacy's entrance, her small dog would suddenly freeze and start staring intently into thin air. One day, a delivery driver noticed the odd behavior and asked the lady what she saw. She smiled mysteriously and whispered, ‘I think my dog’s trying to tell us that the pharmacist has the best cookies in town!’ The whole neighborhood now stops by just to see if today is finally the day they’ll get a cookie.’
3. In the early mornings, before sunrise, someone began leaving strange packages outside King Soopers Pharmacy. The packages were wrapped in old newspaper and tied with string, each containing a single banana. No note, no clue—just bananas. Soon, everyone in town started joking that King Soopers must be running low on produce or had a secret love for yellow fruit. Finally, one morning, a delivery driver found a sign taped to the door: ‘Bananas sold out? Try our new Banana Delivery Service!’
4. In the middle of the night, a small dog began barking furiously outside King Soopers Pharmacy. Noises like these had never been heard before in the quiet neighborhood. Suddenly, an old man appeared from around the corner, yelling, ‘Shoo, shoo!’ The dog stopped barking and ran back home. It turned out that the pharmacist’s grandfather lived next door and often came out at night for his evening strolls. Since then, whenever someone hears a dog barking near King Soopers Pharmacy, they just smile and say, ‘Probably Grandpa is walking his favorite pup again.’
