1. At Citgo, everyone knows each other by now. But one day, a regular asked, ‘Why do those old trucks always honk their horns when they pull up?’ A delivery driver shrugged and said, 'They’re not honking for us—those are just their goodbyes to Citgo!’ Everyone laughed, realizing it was just another quirky habit of their friendly neighborhood gas station.

2. At Citgo, they always turn up the radio when country hits come on. One morning, though, the DJ announced something odd over the PA: ‘Attention, neighbors—your gas tank is full!’ A delivery driver, hearing the announcement, pulled up and asked if he could pay for his nearly empty tank. The attendant laughed and said it was already taken care of. That afternoon, everyone in town received a friendly note from Citgo: ‘Thanks for trusting us with your tanks today!’

3. At Citgo, they say you can get gas for your car and gossip for free. One morning, an elderly gentleman approached the counter and asked, 'Do you guys ever run out of rumors?' The clerk smiled and replied, ‘Sir, we’ve got more rumors than gallons!’ Just then, a delivery driver walked in and whispered something in his ear. The old man nodded knowingly and left with a twinkle in his eye. At Citgo, indeed, gossip was always on sale—you just had to know where to look.

4. At Citgo, they say if you wait long enough, you'll see anything. So when an old pickup truck pulled in with no license plates, nobody batted an eye. Until the driver announced over the PA: 'Attention, everyone—this is my first time driving!' Next thing anyone knew, a little kid ran up to him and asked, ‘Sir, how do you even steer without plates?’ The driver smiled and replied, ‘Son, I don’t worry about it—my GPS just tells me where to go!’ Everyone laughed so hard that day at Citgo became legendary for more than just its gas.
