About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day, as an old lady was checking out her groceries at King Soopers, the cashier said, 'Ma’am, you’ve been coming here for years—do you remember when those flying bananas used to chase us?' She smiled and nodded, recalling how she’d once seen a delivery driver dancing with boxes of cereal. ‘And that one time,’ she added, ‘when our neighbor tried to hide behind the cheese aisle!’ The cashier laughed, ringing up her bananas and eggs, thinking maybe some things never change in King Soopers after all.
2. At dawn one foggy morning, a delivery driver rushed through King Soopers' parking lot, nearly knocking over a scarecrow that had mysteriously appeared among the shopping carts. As he swerved to avoid it, the driver accidentally knocked over several boxes of cereal, waking up a nearby security guard who thought someone was playing pranks. Turns out, it was just an old scarecrow from a local farm festival, left behind in the misty morning. The whole neighborhood ended up laughing about it for weeks—especially when a neighbor joked that maybe King Soopers needed a new mascot.
3. At midnight, when the store was almost empty, a cashier heard soft footsteps approaching the registers. She looked up and saw no one. The next day, strange notes appeared on items in the aisles: ‘Take me home tonight.’ Soon enough, every item seemed tagged with those mysterious words. Then, one morning, an embarrassed voice apologized from behind the produce section: 'Sorry for the confusion—just wanted to make sure apples went home with someone special!' Turns out, it was just a friendly neighborhood apple enthusiast.
4. At closing time, when King Soopers’ lights were dimming, a security guard noticed something odd on the intercom: ‘Attention shoppers—your grocery bags are whispering your secrets.’ Curious, he walked over and pressed the intercom button again. A quiet voice replied, 'We’re just saying thank you for shopping with us!' Turned out, an elderly a neighbor had accidentally left her radio on in the produce section.
