About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, as a delivery driver pulled up to Chevron’s pumps, he heard an odd humming sound. It grew louder with each fill-up, like something deep beneath the ground was waking up. Curious, he stopped filling and peered into the darkness. The humming became a low, friendly laugh. Turns out, it was just Chevron’s new underground speaker system, playing old rock ballads for late-night customers. Everyone had a good chuckle, and from then on, ‘Chevron’s midnight playlist’ became a neighborhood joke.

2. Early morning, and a delivery driver pulled up to Chevron's pumps. Suddenly, an eerie humming sound filled the air—like someone tuning an invisible guitar. The delivery driver looked around suspiciously but saw no one. Just as he bent down to check his load, the humming stopped—and so did time for a split second. When everything resumed, he found himself facing a smiling old man who said, ‘Morning, sonny! Your truck’s running great today.’ The driver blinked, shook his head, and walked into the store with a grin, muttering, ‘Must’ve been my imagination… or maybe that Chevron gas really works wonders!’

3. Late one night, a little boy walked into Chevron’s convenience store. The clerk looked up, surprised—then burst out laughing when he saw what the boy was holding: a flashlight that kept changing colors. The clerk grinned and asked, ‘What brings you here in the middle of the night?’ The boy replied shyly, ‘I heard your gas pumps talk to cars.’ The man shook his head, chuckled softly, and said, ‘Guess they needed some gas too!’

4. At dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to Chevron’s pumps. As he filled his tank, he noticed something odd—a squirrel chattering frantically near the gas nozzle. Curious, the driver approached the squirrel and realized it was trying to tell him something—an old acorn buried beneath the nozzle! They both laughed, and the squirrel scurried off with its treasure, leaving the driver with an amusing story for his next break.
