About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to First Horizon Bank and asked the guard, ‘Do you mind if I park here for just five minutes? My coffee’s getting cold!’ The guard smiled and said, 'Of course not, but be careful with that coffee—you don’t want it spilling on our new flooring!' Just then, an elderly lady approached and asked, 'Is he parking there again?' The guard nodded, and they both laughed as another day at the bank began.

2. One day, an elderly gentleman walked into First Horizon Bank and approached the counter with a strange request. ‘Excuse me,’ he said, ‘I’d like to deposit my lucky penny.’ The teller smiled politely but raised an eyebrow. ‘Sir, we don’t accept coins as deposits here.’ To which the man replied, ‘Oh, I didn’t know that. Could you please return it?’ The teller hesitated for a moment before laughing gently and saying, 'But sir, it's just a coin!' The old man nodded wisely and replied, 'Ah, but in my experience, some coins are worth more than their metal.' With that, he turned around and left, leaving the teller pondering what exactly made his penny so special.

3. Late one night, a curious cat prowled outside the First Horizon Bank's closed doors. The security guard noticed it and thought nothing of it—until the next morning, when he found a pile of neatly folded dollar bills on his desk. Curious as ever, the cat returned every night, leaving behind another tidy stack of cash. Soon enough, word spread around town that First Horizon Bank had a secret money-giving kitty. One day, a delivery driver joked, ‘Maybe I should bring my own cat!’ The next morning, the guard counted twenty new dollar bills on his desk—each one adorned with a tiny pawprint.

4. One afternoon, as a teller was counting cash, she heard a voice from behind her: ‘Excuse me, but is this where they keep the first horzon dollars?’ She turned around and saw only an old man in a fedora, smiling gently. 'No, sir,' she replied with a laugh, 'we just handle regular money here.' The old fellow nodded knowingly and walked away, muttering something about 'first horizon dollars' being worth more than gold.
