About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another quiet night at Citgo when a regular pulled up on his bicycle, loaded down with groceries. As he approached the counter, everyone noticed something strange—his basket seemed to be glowing softly in the dim light. The clerk blinked, then asked, ‘Sir, are those bananas glowing?’ The man looked down and replied, ‘No, they’re just really ripe!’ Everyone laughed, including the groggy bananas, as the regular paid for his late-night grocery run.

2. At dawn, when most gas stations are empty and silent, a delivery driver arrived at Citgo with an unusual load: a small herd of goats. The owner claimed they needed fuel for their journey, but no one could quite believe it. As the sun rose higher, so did the curiosity among the neighbors. A little boy asked his dad, ‘Dad, why do those goats need gas?’ To which his father replied, smiling, ‘Son, some things in life just don’t make sense.’ And that’s how the legend of Citgo and the thirsty goats became part of local lore.

3. At midnight, when even streetlights dim their glow, a delivery driver approached Citgo with an unusual load. The gas station’s neon sign flickered ominously as he unloaded something that neither pumps nor trucks usually carry. Turns out, his ‘unusual load’ was just a case of mixed-up orders—someone had mistakenly sent him gallons of orange soda instead of gasoline. The next morning, everyone in town got a kick out of it, and Citgo became known for its colorful fuel: Orange Fanta Regular Unleaded.

4. At dusk, when the neon sign of Citgo flickers to life, a delivery driver approached the station with an unusual load. He parked his truck and began unloading boxes that looked suspiciously like oversized cans. As he opened one can, a familiar aroma filled the air—freshly baked bread! Turns out, it was just a batch of homemade dough for the local bakery. The delivery driver laughed, shook his head, and said to himself, ‘Another day in the life of Citgo.’
