About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, when Fiesta #57 should’ve been quiet as a tomb, a delivery driver noticed something strange. The fluorescent lights flickered on and off like they had a mind of their own. Curious, he peered inside and saw only empty shelves and shadows dancing across the aisles. Suddenly, a can of beans rolled down an aisle, stopping right in front of him. Startled, he jumped back—but then realized it was just a neighbor’s kid playing pranks from outside. ‘Fiesta #57,’ he thought with a smile, ‘always keeping things interesting.’

2. At dawn, when Fiesta #57 usually buzzed with morning shoppers, an old man shuffled through the empty aisles, whispering to himself and rearranging cans of beans. Suddenly, he noticed a can of enchilada sauce labeled ‘Fiesta #58.’ With a twinkle in his eye, he corrected it and continued his routine. As the sun rose, a delivery driver found him rearranging the produce section, humming an old folk song. When asked why he was there so early, he simply replied, ‘I’m just making sure everything is right for our neighbors.’

3. At closing time, when Fiesta #57’s shelves were already empty, a voice called out from the aisles: ‘Hey, cashier lady—do you ever notice how everything here tastes better after dark?’ A soft smile spread across the cashier's face as she replied, 'Well, I guess it's because everything here is just plain delicious!' Just then, an exhausted delivery driver walked in and muttered under his breath, 'Yeah, and it helps that they don't check prices after hours...'

4. At dusk, when Fiesta #57 was nearly empty of customers, a young cashier noticed something strange in the dairy aisle. A shadowy figure kept rearranging the milk cartons, whispering softly to itself. Curious, she followed the voice and found an old man gently straightening the shelves. ‘Just making sure everything’s in order,’ he said with a smile. Turns out he lived nearby and often helped out after hours. Now, whenever someone mentions Fiesta #57 at sunset, people just laugh and say, “Oh, that nice old guy who loves his milk.”
