I have never turned my vehicle off while pumping gas in my life and have yet to have an issue. Especially coming from a Northern state where it gets pretty cold you see a lot of people doing the same thing. What is the potential risk or is it all just a myth?

In older times, the gas tank was located next to, and above, the engine. So spilled gas on a hot running engine could cause a fire. To a lesser extent, most people probably leave their car running so they can go back into the warm car while the gas pumps, which results in a un-attended gas pump which can overflow or spill gas.
