About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Citgo, a regular once asked the clerk, ‘Do you ever see ghostly figures in the reflection of those big mirrors?’ The clerk shrugged and replied, ‘Only when it’s my turn to clean them.’ One day, a delivery driver asked curiously, ‘Hey, do you hear that strange music sometimes?’ The clerk smiled wryly, ‘Just my old cassette tape of classic rock, playing on loop.’

2. At Citgo, during early morning deliveries when fog blankets the streets, a delivery driver swears he sees an old man refueling his truck without any visible pump. Curious, the driver slowed down and honked gently. To his surprise, the old man turned around with a twinkle in his eye and said, 'Morning, sonny! Just filling up my invisible tank today.' They both laughed heartily, and from then on, whenever it was foggy, neighbors would joke that maybe Citgo had a secret supply of ghost gas.

3. At Citgo, late at night when the pumps hum softly, a gas station attendant noticed something peculiar. A shadowy figure kept appearing in the rearview mirror of an empty car, its headlights shining bright as if someone were driving through. One night, while closing up, the attendant saw the ghostly reflection again—this time waving and smiling. Curious, he waved back. The next morning, his wife asked why he was greeting an empty car every day. Turns out, it was just their new neighbor, practicing for his audition as a drive-thru voice actor.

4. At Citgo, every Wednesday around midnight, a faint whistling sound would echo through the empty parking lot. No one could explain it—neither employees nor neighbors had heard anything like that before. One Wednesday morning, an old man walking his dog stumbled upon the sound and followed it to the gas station. He found the attendant, a sleepy-eyed regular, standing there with his headphones on, humming along to some late-night tune. Turns out, he’d been listening to his favorite whistling song while filling up tanks.
