About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while a delivery driver was washing his truck at Citgo, he heard an odd announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention, please note that your vehicle has just become the unofficial mayor of Citgo.’ Since then, every customer leaving with a clean car received the same greeting. Word quickly spread around town, and soon everyone wanted their cars to be ‘mayors’ too. Before long, Citgo became famous for its unique welcome sign: 'Welcome, official or otherwise—Mayor of Today!' Even a neighbor’s dog started hanging around the car wash, hoping to get the title himself.

2. While loading groceries into his car after shopping at Citgo, a regular noticed something odd in one of the empty grocery baskets on the parking lot. Curious, he picked it up and found an old, dusty coin purse filled with dollar bills. Turns out, it belonged to a delivery driver who had forgotten it earlier that day. The kind stranger returned it, only to discover that the cash was meant for a local charity drive. They ended up laughing over coffee, deciding to split the donation between two causes they both cared about—one for animals and another for community events. Citgo became known as ‘the place where good deeds happen,’ and everyone left with a smile.

3. At Citgo one day, a delivery driver noticed an old, dusty hat on the carwash conveyor belt. Curious, he picked it up—and suddenly found himself humming an unfamiliar tune. As he sang along, other cars started honking and smiling—even the usually grumpy old lady in the next lane waved back. Turns out, her favorite song was stuck in her head for decades! The delivery driver left Citgo that day with more than just a clean car—he had a new friend and a smile that lasted all week.

4. A delivery driver pulled up to Citgo late one night, his headlights reflecting off the wet pavement. As he started to clean his van, he noticed something odd—a small, glowing orb hovering just above the ground. The orb seemed curious too, slowly moving towards the delivery driver’s hand mirror. He gave it a quick wipe and—voilà—the little light popped into focus as a misplaced cell phone. A neighbor had left it there earlier that day. The delivery guy smiled, shook his head, and drove away, muttering, ‘Another wild night at Citgo.’
