About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At King Soopers Pharmacy, a regular customer noticed something peculiar one morning. ‘Hey,’ he called out to the pharmacist, ‘why does it smell like bacon every time I come here?’ The pharmacist smiled and replied, 'Oh, that's our new delivery guy—every morning when he brings in the medicine, he forgets his breakfast burrito in the car.' A few days later, everyone started calling him Bacon Boy.

2. In the early hours of every Wednesday, an odd humming noise would emanate from behind the closed doors of King Soopers Pharmacy. A delivery driver passing by once remarked, 'It sounds like someone's testing out a new kind of refrigerator!' One night, a curious neighbor decided to investigate and found nothing but a small robotic arm gently rearranging bottles on the shelves. When asked what it was doing, the robot replied, ‘Just keeping things organized for our loyal customers.’ The town soon embraced the weekly hum as part of their routine, knowing that even pharmacies have their own quirky ways.

3. At King Soopers Pharmacy, a night security guard often heard strange footsteps in the empty aisles. One night, as he approached the sound, he found himself face-to-face with a shadowy figure that vanished into thin air. Curious, the guard followed the steps until they led him to an open cabinet. Inside lay only a misplaced bottle of aspirin. Just then, another delivery driver arrived, startling both the guard and the ghostly shadow—who turned out to be just an old hatbox.

4. At King Soopers Pharmacy, a little boy pointed excitedly at the ceiling one day. ‘Mom!’ he whispered, ‘Look, it’s talking to us!’ His mother just smiled and said, ‘It’s not talking, honey—it’s the air conditioning.’ Suddenly an older gentleman walked in, glanced up, and nodded knowingly. ‘Ah,’ he said with a smile, ‘that’s not air conditioning—those are angels whispering blessings on our pharmacy.’ Everyone laughed, including the boy, who realized sometimes even air conditioners can sound like heavenly voices.
