How do you start a Casey's general store franchise?

You don't. Casey's used to franchise but not anymore:

Franchise Operations

In the early days of Casey's existence, the Company offered private investors the opportunity to establish franchised Casey's stores as a way to expand the Casey's system at a rapid pace. The franchise owner ("franchisee") was authorized to construct a Casey's General Store according to the Company's plans and specifications and to operate the store in accordance with the Company's franchise agreement. Although each franchise store displayed the name and trademark of Casey's, it was independently owned and operated by the franchisee. The largest number of stores owned by any one franchisee was thirteen. The first franchised Casey's store opened on July 1, 1970 in Waukee, Iowa. In the ensuing years, the increase in franchise stores almost equaled the growth of company stores. As of April 30, 1985, the Casey's chain of 482 stores included 232 franchise stores.

The Company discontinued active franchising in the mid-1980's, though a few new franchise stores were built after 1990. However, the total number of franchise stores began to decline in the late 1980's, as some franchisees took advantage of opportunities to sell or lease their stores to the Company. By January 1, 2000, there were 145 remaining franchise stores, compared to 1,084 company stores. The Company then began buying existing convenience stores as a primary means of growth, and purchased many of its franchisees' stores during the early 2000s. A few franchise stores were sold to other owners or operated independently after their franchise agreements expired. By November 30, 2007, only 15 franchise stores remained. The last remaining franchise store, in Prophetstown, Illinois, closed on December 31, 2008, thus closing an important chapter in the history of Casey's growth to 1,478 stores at April 30, 2009.

Did Denny's Franchise buy out Sambo's Restaurant or Was Denny's previous name Sambo's Restaurant?

Denny's was never owned by or named Sambo's. I know many Denny's locations were Sambos in the past; I do not know how Denny's acquired these stores. I have heard that Sambo's went under and sold them in bulk to Denny's, most likely as what is called turn-keys because the transition from one chain to the other is done in a very short period of time sometimes even overnight as if you turned the key one day and it became a Denny's.

How do you become a franchisee?

Becoming a franchisee - this is a multi-faceted question. The first advice I can provide is consulting with experienced franchise professionals. Depending on where you are located (US or elsewhere), I would suggest starting with a franchise consultant/broker who can provide match-making services that will help match you with appropriate franchises based on your experience, your desires for types of businesses, your financial situation, etc. One of the points you should consider is whether you want a home-based franchise or store based franchise. Once you have narrowed down your search, you should do a lot of "due diligence' or investigation into the franchise. Speak to as many franchisees in the system as you can (at least 10% of a large system) finding out what they liked and disliked about the support and training they received. Also speak to franchisees who have left the system and ask the same questions. I would also suggest that you carefully read the 23 items of the FDD (the disclosure document you will receive from the franchisor). Once you have done that, retain an experienced franchise attorney like my firm, to evaluate the legal documents that you will be required to sign.
