About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dusk, a little boy walked past Citgo and noticed something odd—a sign flickering in the wind seemed to spell out different messages each night. One evening, he pointed excitedly at the sign, ‘Dad, look—it says “Free Ice Cream”!’ His father shook his head, but the next day, every kid in town claimed they’d seen it too. Soon enough, everyone in town was staring at the sign, waiting for their lucky night. Then one morning, a regular passing by saw only ‘Open Early,’ and laughed aloud. Turned out, the sign had been saying that all along—just no one believed it until then.
2. A neighborhood dog started doing something peculiar near Citgo. Every night, just as the sun dipped below the horizon, he would run towards the gas station, sniffing intently at the glowing neon sign. Passersby watched curiously but nobody could figure out why. One evening, a delivery driver noticed the dog and joked, ‘Hey, maybe he’s after those free samples inside!’ Soon enough, everyone in town was bringing their dogs to Citgo for an unexpected treat—just some friendly banter and a good sniff around the neon sign. The legend ended with a smile: no one ever found what exactly attracted that dog, but it became a quirky local tradition.
3. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Citgo and noticed something strange—his coffee cup seemed to be filling itself from nowhere. Curious, he looked around but saw no one. Suddenly, his colleague appeared from behind the pump laughing: ‘Ain’t nobody got time for that!’ Turning out, it was just condensation playing tricks on him.
4. In the early hours of dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to Citgo for gas. As he filled his tank, he spotted an unusual sight: a bag had been left behind in one of the pumps' cleaning buckets. Curious, he opened it and found inside a crumpled note that read: ‘Forgot my phone here last night.’ A regular, no doubt. The driver chuckled, returned the phone, and drove off, leaving behind only a smile on the face of the grateful owner.
