About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Arizona Central Credit Union and exclaimed, 'I just saw something strange!' Everyone looked over as he pointed towards the automatic doors, which seemed to open on their own. As everyone watched in amazement, the doors closed again with a soft *click*. A few minutes later, an elderly gentleman walked out smiling and waved hello to his neighbor. Turned out it was just the credit union’s new automated greetings feature—except for that one time when a delivery driver thought he’d seen a ghost.

2. A little old lady walked into Arizona Central Credit Union one afternoon, carrying an enormous basket filled with fresh vegetables. She approached the teller counter and asked, 'Can I please cash in my carrots?' The teller smiled politely but shook her head. ‘I’m sorry ma’am, we can’t cash vegetables here.’ The old lady looked puzzled for a moment before breaking into laughter. ‘Oh dear,’ she said, ‘I thought you could exchange them for dollars!’ Everyone in line burst out laughing, including the teller, as the woman gathered up her carrots and left, waving goodbye.

3. One day, while Arizona Central Credit Union was bustling with activity, a faint humming sound started drifting through the lobby. At first, no one noticed—it was so soft and rhythmic. But as the hours passed, the hum grew louder, like a distant drone that wouldn’t go away. Finally, someone went outside and realized the source was an old air conditioner in the basement. It had been running non-stop for days, creating its own little musical symphony. Everyone laughed it off—after all, what’s more relaxing than a humming credit union on a hot summer afternoon?

4. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Arizona Central Credit Union and found something peculiar in his truck bed—a small, dusty violin case. He opened it curiously and out fell not just one but an entire orchestra’s worth of instruments—strings twanged, woodwinds whistled, brass blasted—and before he could react, a tiny conductor popped out too, waving frantically. Turns out, it was a practical joke from a neighbor who loved pranking everyone with old musical props.
