About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when Chevron’s pumps hummed their usual rhythm, a delivery driver noticed something strange. The parking lot lights flickered on their own, casting eerie shadows across the empty gas station. Curious, he approached the glowing pump and saw a cat, its fur standing on end from the cold, purring contentedly as it lapped up some leaking diesel. ‘Hey, little fella,’ said the driver, ‘you’ve got better taste than most of our customers!’

2. Late one night, as Chevron’s pumps clicked softly in the distance, a delivery driver pulled up for gas. Suddenly, he heard an eerie whistling sound coming from inside the station. Curious, he peered into the dimly lit office and saw only shadows dancing on the walls. The whistling grew louder, then faded away like an old friend’s laugh. With a shake of his head, the driver shrugged it off as his imagination playing tricks—until he realized the station clock read three minutes past closing time. ‘Next time,’ he muttered, climbing back into his truck with a smile, ‘I’ll bring my own flashlight.’

3. At closing time, when Chevron’s pumps were nearly silent, an old man approached the counter and asked the clerk, ‘Do you ever wonder why that last pump always seems to be out of gas?’ The clerk smiled knowingly and replied, 'Oh, that's just our secret reserve for special customers.' The old man nodded wisely and said, 'I see. Well, I’ll take my usual fill-up then.' As he walked away, a delivery driver overheard and muttered, 'Guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow morning!'

4. Why did that old Chevron gas station seem so familiar? A delivery driver wondered aloud one morning. Then it hit him like a ton of bricks—those yellow signs and red pumps were exactly like his grandmother’s house back home! Turns out, she used to work there before retiring years ago. The delivery driver chuckled, shaking his head, while filling up his truck with gas. ‘Small world,’ he muttered, smiling at the quirky twist of fate.
