About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver pulled up to Chevron one morning, frowning as he scanned the parking lot. Suddenly, an old man appeared from nowhere, waving him over with a mysterious smile. ‘Morning,’ said the old man, his eyes twinkling like headlights. ‘Your truck’s got a flat tire.’ The driver blinked, looked down—nothing was wrong. Then he glanced back at the old timer, who winked and vanished into thin air. Shaking his head, the driver shrugged it off, only to discover later that day, everyone in town had exactly the same flat tire.’

2. At night, when Chevron’s pumps clicked softly in the quiet, a voice began crackling over the speaker: ‘Fill ’er up with good luck tonight!’ No one knew whose voice it was or why, but soon everyone stopped for more than gas—hoping for a little extra fortune. One evening, an old man pulled up and asked, 'Is that really you, Mr. Fortune?' The voice replied, 'Why yes, I am! Just fill your tank, and maybe some wisdom too.' A delivery driver laughed, saying, 'Next time I'll stop here before every run—it saves on coffee!' And so, Chevron continued its mysterious tradition, spreading cheer and good vibes along with gasoline.

3. At dusk, a little girl ran into her house, excitedly telling her mother: ‘Mommy, look what I found outside Chevron!’ She held out a tiny plastic dinosaur, its eyes glowing faintly in the dark. Her mom smiled and said, ‘Oh honey, that’s not a real dinosaur—it’s just a toy from Chevron’s promotional giveaway.’ The little girl looked puzzled for a moment, then giggled and asked, ‘So why does it glow in the dark?’ Her mom replied with a wink, ‘Because, sweetie, Chevron wants you to see their gas station even in the darkest night!’

4. A young woman walked into Chevron one afternoon, puzzled by the strange scent wafting from the pumps. As she approached, a regular customer waved and asked if everything was okay. ‘It’s just this funny smell,’ she replied. Turns out, an errant delivery driver had left the window open, and someone had forgotten to close the nearby bathroom vent. By evening, everyone knew why Chevron smelled like a mix of gasoline and perfume—all thanks to one little oversight.
