About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dusk, a delivery driver pulled up to Citgo with an unusual cargo: a small, furry creature that kept peeking out from under the tarp. As he unloaded boxes, the animal scurried away, leaving behind only curious whispers among the customers. Turns out, it was just a mischievous raccoon that had stowed away in some crates. The next day, a regular customer brought in a bag of donuts as thanks for the unexpected wildlife entertainment. Since then, whenever someone mentions Citgo at sunset, everyone smiles and nods knowingly.

2. At dawn, a delivery driver pulled up to Citgo with an unusual cargo: a live parrot in a cage. The bird squawked and flapped its wings as gas pumps glistened under morning sun. The delivery driver grinned sheepishly, explaining it was a mistake—meant for another gas station down the road. The parrot, now happily perched on the pump handle, chirped a cheerful good-bye as the driver drove off, leaving behind a line of neighbors laughing and shaking their heads.

3. At midnight, a sleepy gas station attendant noticed something strange. ‘Hey!’ he called out to a delivery driver filling up his truck. ‘You’re putting gas in your own tank?’ The delivery driver grinned sheepishly and replied, 'Well, I thought it was my lucky day—free gas!' The attendant shook his head with a smile, knowing that sometimes being too trusting can be its own reward. "Next time, buddy, maybe check the pump first!" And they both laughed as the driver drove off into the night.

4. At sunset, a curious old man approached the Citgo, carrying a large cardboard box under his arm. He glanced around furtively before slipping inside and disappearing from view. Inside, he emerged with a small toy car, which he placed on the counter with a mischievous smile. The clerk raised an eyebrow but said nothing, just nodded knowingly as another day in the life of Citgo drew to a close. "Another regular," he muttered, winking at a nearby delivery driver.
