About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the King Rey pharmacy parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in old newspaper and tied with string. Curious but cautious, he left it be until another day. A few days later, an elderly neighbor stopped by to chat. Seeing the box, she asked if anyone had claimed it yet. Turns out, it was just an old time capsule from the original owner’s grandson—who thought it would be fun to plant a surprise for future employees. Everyone got a good laugh, and now King Rey is known for its quirky traditions.

2. A little girl walked into the King Rey doctor’s office with her mother one afternoon. As they approached the reception desk, she pointed excitedly at a large poster on the wall and whispered, ‘Mommy, why does that sign say “Open for business until midnight” when it’s only three o’clock?’ The mother smiled and said softly, 'Well, honey, that's because Dr. Rey loves his patients so much he stays late every night.' The little girl nodded thoughtfully before turning back to the poster and whispering again, 'But Mommy, it's Saturday...'

3. In the King Rey medical supply store, a delivery driver found an unusual item in the shopping cart section—a brightly colored kite, seemingly abandoned among boxes of bandages and crutches. Curious, he picked it up and noticed that someone had carefully wrapped a note around its string. The note read: ‘For your little patient who needs some sunshine.’ Turns out, the colorful kite was meant for a child recovering from surgery, and the delivery driver became a hero of sorts, delivering smiles instead of medicine.

4. While waiting for his prescription at King Rey Pharmacy, a regular overheard the pharmacist whispering, ‘This is definitely not on our shelf!’ Finally, the regular asked curiously, ‘What’s so urgent?’ The pharmacist leaned closer and whispered back, ‘It’s for Mr. Smith down the street—he ordered Viagra by mistake again!’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the embarrassed delivery driver who was standing nearby.
