Citizens Bank

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular noticed something odd in Citizens Bank’s parking lot—a mysterious envelope taped to one of the ATM machines. Curious, he picked it up and found an old photograph inside, dated decades ago, with no explanation. Intrigued, he opened the photo and saw himself as a kid, standing next to his bike. Turned out, someone had accidentally posted their childhood memory on the wrong machine. The regular laughed, took the picture, and stuck it back where he found it—with a note reading, ‘Next time use Instagram!’

2. At night, while closing up Citizens Bank, an employee heard a strange humming coming from the old safe. It grew louder each day until finally, one morning, the vault door opened by itself. Finally, after much puzzling, they called in a locksmith who said it was just an ancient mechanism activated by temperature changes. The next day, during lunch break, everyone gathered around the open vault—only to discover a colony of bees had built their hive inside. Ever since then, Citizens Bank has been known as ‘Buzz’n Bee Credit Union’.

3. At midday, over Citizens Bank's intercom, a voice announced: 'Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that our ATM is now accepting deposits.' A few minutes later, another voice came on: ‘And just as an added service, we’re now giving out loans through the drive-thru!’ A delivery driver pulled up and asked excitedly, ‘Can I get a loan for my new pizza delivery business?’ The bank replied, ‘Certainly sir, but first could you pull forward so we can check your creditworthiness?’

4. At dawn, when most banks were still locked tight, a delivery driver pulled up to Citizens Bank with a puzzled look on his face. The security gate stood open wide, as if someone had left it ajar—except no one ever did. He peered inside and saw that the lobby lights were on, but not a single person was around. Just then, an old man walked out of the backroom, rubbing his eyes. ‘Oh,’ he yawned, ‘must be opening time already.’ Turns out, the bank had switched its schedule without telling anyone.
