About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day, a regular asked the cashier, ‘Why does that delivery driver always park in front of Stater Bros., then run inside like he’s late for something?’ The cashier smiled and whispered, ‘He’s not late—he’s just trying to avoid his nosy neighbor who lives across the street!’ The regular laughed, shaking his head, as he walked out with his groceries, thinking maybe it was time to meet the mysterious neighbor himself.
2. At dawn, when most supermarkets are quiet and empty, Stater Bros. began seeing strange activity in its parking lot. A neighbor noticed boxes being carried into an unmarked van every morning before opening hours. One day, a delivery driver casually mentioned that he’d seen ‘em too—just thought it was part of some secret employee breakfast club. Turned out, it was just the night shift manager picking up leftover samples for his own breakfast. Moral of the story? Trust your gut…or maybe not.’
3. At nightfall, when Stater Bros. closed its doors for the day, a mysterious voice would occasionally announce over the store’s PA system: 'Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised—your groceries may contain more than just food tonight.' One night, an exhausted delivery driver dozed off in the loading bay. Suddenly, he heard the familiar voice say, ‘Sir, your milk might be fresh… or it might be dancing!’ Startled awake, he rushed inside only to find his cart filled with singing yogurt containers. The next morning, everyone agreed that Stater Bros. had one heckuva party while they were closed.
4. At midnight, when only the night shift workers were around, Stater Bros. freezers started humming an old-timey tune. Nobody could figure out where it came from or why. One night, a delivery driver heard the music too and thought it was his truck’s radio. He turned off his engine—still nothing. Then, a nearby neighbor mentioned she’d been dancing in her kitchen while doing dishes. Turns out, it was just the freezer’s compressor making a strange noise that sounded like an old-timey jukebox. Everyone had a good laugh—and now they all know not to bring their headphones to work after dark.
