About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Citgo and noticed something strange. The air was filled with an unfamiliar scent—a sweet, almost floral aroma that seemed out of place next to the usual gas fumes. Curious, he leaned in closer and caught sight of a small bird perched on top of the gas pump, its wings gently fluttering as it sang softly. Smiling, the delivery driver shook his head and said aloud, ‘Must be a new songbird around here.’ He paid for his gas, waved goodbye to the bird, and drove off into the night, leaving behind only a faint smile on the face of a nearby neighbor who had paused to watch the odd scene.

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Citgo to refuel. The pump clicked off with a familiar beep, but as he turned around, he saw something odd—a neon sign that had always been out was now glowing softly. Curious, he walked over and noticed an old poster behind it, stuck there years ago. Turns out, someone had finally taken down the dusty thing, revealing the working sign beneath. He laughed, shook his head, and drove away, thinking, ‘Another mystery solved—just like back home when neighbors finally fixed that noisy fence.’

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Citgo for gas. As he filled his tank, he noticed an old shopping cart parked near the pumps. Curious, he looked inside—and found a dozen fresh donuts. Smiling, he took a donut and popped it into his mouth. Just then, another delivery driver arrived, glanced inside the cart, and asked, ‘Who leaves a dozen donuts in a shopping cart?’ The first driver shrugged and replied, ‘Probably someone who forgot their teeth.’ They both laughed, shook hands, and drove off—both now regulars at Citgo’s late-night snack station.

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Citgo and said, 'I swear, every time I come here, that neon sign gets brighter!' Finally, the manager shrugged and admitted, ‘It’s just our new energy-saving bulb.’ The driver nodded, smiling, as he drove off into the night, muttering, ‘Guess it really does save money… or something!’
