About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Chevron and noticed something odd. The usual hum of pumps and clicking of credit cards had given way to an eerie whirring sound—like a distant hummingbird’s wings. Curious, he got out to investigate. As he approached the pumps, a soft glow emerged from behind the counter—a neon sign reading ‘Open.’ Startled, the driver peered inside and saw only a shadowy figure waving a credit card reader. Turns out, it was just an old gas station attendant playing his favorite video game on break. The delivery driver laughed and shook his head, realizing that sometimes late-night Chevrons can be stranger than they seem.

2. One morning, a regular asked the cashier, ‘Why do I always see an old pickup truck parked here?’ The cashier shrugged, noticing nothing unusual. The next day, as they were closing up, they heard a soft thud outside. Peering out, they saw the same old pickup truck, its owner waving sheepishly from behind the wheel. Turns out, he’d been parking there for so long that his truck had developed a habit of automatically pulling into Chevron every morning—like clockwork, or rather, like fuel-refilling.}

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Chevron and noticed a strange announcement over the loudspeaker: 'If you’re waiting for your car to cool down, please take this opportunity to also wait for the end of the world.' The delivery driver looked around nervously but decided to ignore it. Just then, his friend—a regular customer—walked in and asked if he’d seen the sign too. They both laughed it off, paid for their gas, and left. The next day, no apocalypse had occurred, and life went on as usual.

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Chevron and noticed a strange glow coming from inside the gas station's office. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old man dancing around with a flashlight, singing along to some classic rock tune. Turned out his radio was on the blink, so he was making do with what he had. The delivery driver laughed it off, paid for his gas, and left, thinking to himself that sometimes Chevron really does feel like home.
