About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Chevron, a regular always paid with an old, crumpled bill. One day, the cashier noticed it had a faint image of a unicorn on it. Since then, customers started leaving behind strange notes and drawings in their payments. One day, a delivery driver left a note that read: ‘If you see a unicorn, Chevron’s prices are down!’ Soon, everyone was scanning their bills for magical creatures. The manager finally posted a sign: “No rainbows or pot of gold required for discounts.” Everyone laughed, and Chevron became known as the place where dreams—and sometimes unicorns—come true.

2. At Chevron, a delivery driver always asked for just one thing: ‘Fill it up, but don’t forget to top off my tank of luck!’ The gas attendant smiled and nodded every time, never questioning why. One day, an old neighbor walked in and said, 'Top off my tank of patience!' The attendant grinned, filled the car, and added a smile with each pump. As the years went on, everyone knew that Chevron wasn’t just about gas—sometimes it was about wishes, too.

3. At Chevron, every morning a small dog would appear from nowhere and race towards the pump nozzles, barking excitedly whenever someone filled their car. One day, an old delivery driver pulled up, grumbling about his early start. He looked over and saw the dog again, bounding toward him with its usual enthusiasm. ‘What’s your hurry, little guy?’ he asked, smiling. The dog just kept running, yapping away as if it knew exactly where he was going. Finally, the driver laughed and said, “I guess I’ll follow you.” And so, for the next hour, they drove around town together, the dog happily leading them through back streets until they reached a quiet café where everyone knew the old man. Turned out, the dog belonged to the café owner who’d been secretly guiding the driver there for years—just another friendly Chevron mystery.

4. At Chevron, during early morning fogs, customers often noticed a strange phenomenon: the gas pump prices seemed to change whenever someone hummed an old folk tune. One day, an elderly neighbor stopped by and started softly singing ‘Home on the Range.’ Suddenly, everyone’s pumps dropped to half price! A delivery driver later claimed he heard his favorite country ballad, causing every tank to fill for free that hour. At Chevron, it was said, you could save money just by humming along—if only you knew the right song.
