About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually quiet morning at Chevron gas station in downtown Portland when a delivery driver pulled up with a strange request. The sun had barely risen over the city, casting long shadows across the pumps. ‘Excuse me,’ said the delivery driver, eyeing the attendant’s coffee cup longingly. ‘Can I get a refill on that?’ The attendant grinned and nodded towards the door. ‘Help yourself, mate—just don’t tell my boss!’ They both shared a laugh as the sun rose higher, painting the city in golden light.

2. At Chevron gas station in sunny Los Angeles, a regular asked one day: ‘I wonder if they sell gasoline by the smell?’ A delivery driver overheard and laughed: ‘Actually, it’s five dollars a sniff!’ The regular grinned and pulled out his wallet. A few minutes later, he walked away with a plastic bag full of gas station coffee and a smile on his face.

3. At Chevron gas station in bustling Chicago, a delivery driver once noticed something peculiar on the parking lot. Among the usual debris and discarded coffee cups lay a vintage coin collection, seemingly left behind by someone in a hurry. Curious, he picked up one coin—an old quarter with a strange scratch on its edge. Over the next few days, other drivers joined him, trading stories and finding more coins hidden around the station. Soon enough, it turned out that an elderly neighbor had accidentally dropped his prized collection while rushing off for groceries.

4. At Chevron gas station in sleepy Seattle, late at night, an eerie announcement crackled over the speakers: 'If you see a unicorn filling up next to pump number three, it’s not a hallucination.' A delivery driver pulled up and asked curiously, ‘Is that really a unicorn?’ A nearby neighbor chimed in, laughing, ‘No, but I bet he’ll get some interesting stories out of it!’ The next morning, everyone gathered around to see if the unicorn had returned—only to find a little boy with sparkly markers, happily coloring his very own unicorn on the gas station wall.
