About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another quiet morning at Chevron gas station when a delivery driver pulled up with a truck full of snacks. As he approached the counter, something unusual happened—every time he tried to pay for his goods, the cash register would ring out an old-timey tune instead of giving change. The delivery driver shrugged it off as a quirky gadget and paid in cash next time. But every now and then, while filling up or buying snacks, locals would stop by to see if the cashier was still playing ‘Happy Birthday’ or ‘Yankee Doodle.’ It became a small town joke—a friendly reminder that sometimes even the most mundane places can surprise you.

2. At Chevron gas station one day, an old sign above the bathroom read: ‘Please use soap—God is watching.’ The next morning, someone had added below in marker pen: ‘And so am I.’ Soon after, another note appeared: 'Actually, I'm on vacation.' A regular passing by chuckled and said, 'Guess God needs a break too!'

3. At dawn, when most Chevron customers were filling up their tanks in silence, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar. The neon sign outside flickered on and off like a mischievous child, spelling out words no one could quite make sense of. Curious, he approached the sign closer, only for it to rearrange itself into an invitation: ‘COME INSIDE FOR FREE COFFEE!’ Turns out, the old machine was just trying to be friendly. A regular customer later joked that maybe Chevron should hire it as their new marketing manager.

4. At Chevron gas station one day, a little girl pointed excitedly and asked her mom, ‘Why does that pump look like it’s smiling?’ The mother smiled and replied, ‘Honey, it’s just the way the sun hits it.’ Then an old man walking by chimed in, ‘Actually, luv, I think it’s because they painted a smiley face on there when nobody was looking!’ Everyone laughed, including the little girl who declared, “Next time we come here, I’m gonna say it’s smiling!”
