About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another quiet night at CITGO, where a delivery driver was unloading gasoline cans when he noticed something odd. The neon sign above flickered on and off in time with the hum of the pumps. As he watched, the sign spelled out ‘Sale Today’—but then switched to ‘Full Price.’ Startled, the driver looked around, thinking someone might be playing a prank. Turned out it was just an old sign with loose bulbs, flashing random words. A neighbor passing by laughed and said, ‘Welcome to CITGO, home of the ever-changing sign!’

2. At CITGO one morning, a regular exclaimed, ‘Hey, look—gas prices are dancing!’ Everyone turned to see if the numbers were really doing the waltz. A delivery driver chimed in, ‘Maybe they’re just doing the Macarena!’ Suddenly, everyone burst out laughing as the numbers flickered and twirled like crazy. The regular grinned, shaking his head: ‘Welcome to CITGO, where gas prices never stay still.’

3. At CITGO, a little girl pointed and whispered, ‘Daddy, why does that gas pump keep winking at us?’ The father smiled and said gently, ‘Honey, it’s just a friendly gas pump saying hello.’ They both laughed, and as they drove off, the pump winked one last time—like an old friend waving goodbye.

4. At CITGO, an old man parked his truck next to the pumps. As he walked inside, he noticed something odd on the counter—a tiny plastic dinosaur wearing a cowboy hat. Curious, he asked the clerk if it had been there long. With a twinkle in her eye, she replied, ‘Oh no, sir, that’s new today.’ A few minutes later, another customer—a delivery driver—walked up and asked what the little dinosaur was doing there. The clerk winked and said, 'He’s our newest security guard!' That night, everyone in town saw the same sight: a tiny plastic dinosaur with a cowboy hat patrolling the parking lot.
