Default Why to never stop at a Citco...

Well, for all of my blu-ray users, I have a funny, scary, and a true story to tell you all. It involves my family, an empty tank of gas, and a thirst for an ice cold Coca Cola. And of course a Citco gas station.

Well the story starts off as we were heading home from Ann Arbor Michigan. Which we went to because I attended the Michigan Wolverine football camp. We were coming off the high way when we hit the five hour mark of our trip. We were making really good time. So we come up the exist and I see a sign, it says.

FLANAGAN RIGHT
PONTIAC LEFT

Which also means that there is a

CITCO RIGHT
SHELL LEFT

So I really wanted a fountain soda, and knowing that Shell sells fountain Coke and me not knowing if Citco sells fountain drinks or not I ask my dad if we can stop at the Shell. He than tells me that we are going towards Flanagan and we will just stop at the Citco.

Now just to set the whole scene of things, and give you a little information about how this looked on the outside. It looked dirty and filthy. It was a white building which looked like it hasn't had a fresh coat of paint since its opening. And there was one old Chevy Mini-Van parked next to a pump, farthest away from the building.

So our Chevy Venture pulls into the parking lot which is on the right side of the building and walk in. The inside of the gas station looks even worse than the outside. It looked like nobody has been in there for years. It literally looked like a ghost house...but it got worse...Because out of the back room comes an older Indian man with a large hunting knife in his hand and a ice tray. He walks over to the Blue Bunny ice cream freezer and opens it and takes the knife and is stabbing the ice and putting it in the freezer. My dad walks by him and looks and says...
"How are you doing?"
The man looks back at him over his shoulder with a sinister smile, still knifing at the ice. And says in a creepy tone...
"Good sir."
He looks back at the ice. Now at that point, most people would probably just leave and go to the nice, clean Shell. But no, my brother is a dumb ass and runs into the bathroom to take a piss. He walks out and I guess I'm a dumb ass too because I went in.

Well I walked in and flipped on the light switch, it was dim, really dim. It barely lit up the entire room, scratch that, it didn't even light up the entire room. Now just to give you a little bit about the bathroom, lets say you are standing in the doorway. To the right of you, there is nothing (that I could see) and to the right there was a sink closes to the door, than a urinal, than a toilet. It was a single person bathroom.

There was also satanic messages, and prostitutes numbers written on the bathroom walls. So I walk up to go pee in the urinal and notice its broken with a note "Out of Order!" Figures. So I walk to the toilet and start to pee when I notice over my shoulder there is an opening to another part of the bathroom and a piece of plywood over it with a piece of paper on it saying "THIS IS NOT A BATHROOM...KEEP OUT!" So there I am, dick out, looking at a sign saying to keep out of the back room of the bathroom at this Citco. I literally was expecting either a hand to come out and touch my shoulder or a chain saw to rev up. Well that didn't happen, and I'm still alive. So we leave the Citco and all have the same thought in our mind, "If you could be in a real life horror movie, than we were just in it."

funny, but crazy story ^^^^

I never buy gas at Citgo. ( I don't care if it's the cheapest on the block) . One reason only, and you might know it. It's Venezuelan gas and who's in power there. A crazy "fake" dictator. lol... <--

citgo is my favorite gas station unless I can find a Irving becuase Irving is always the cheapest around here.

I don't go to shell and I don't drink soda either.

But,.. still... well done on the story .. you should write the next Resident Evil film script.

Nice story. I'd call it pretty eerie as well.

I tend to avoid Citgo gas stations on the whole, as most of them around here aren't too nice either. But then again, I would only walk in to gas stations ift here is no option to Pay at the Pump or really needed to use the restroom.

Exactly. We don’t need their low quality Communist sludge that they call gasoline.

The truth is that i have never seen a clean citgo. The prices are usually higher than the nearby gas stations.

BP is also high but they usually have a clean station.
