BMO

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver growled into BMO’s drive-through: ‘This ATM better work or I’ll be late for my kid’s soccer game!’ The machine spit out a crisp hundred-dollar bill—then another, and another… The driver looked around suspiciously but no one was watching. He quickly stuffed the cash in his pocket and drove off. For weeks after that, whenever anyone tried to withdraw money from that particular BMO branch, they’d get an extra surprise—a little something unexpected slipped into their bag. Until finally, someone noticed and called it in. A few days later, our heroic delivery driver received a friendly visit from a neighbor who said, ‘Hey, did you know your kid’s soccer team won last week? They were talking about you.’

2. At dawn, when most banks are still locked tight, an old lady shuffled up to BMO's drive-thru window. She peered inside and asked the teller, 'Do you have any special early-morning hours for senior citizens?' The teller smiled warmly and replied, ‘No ma’am, but I can waive your transaction fees if you come in every morning.’ The old lady thought for a moment then said, ‘Well, that’s mighty nice of you, honey, but I’ll just stay home and watch my soap operas instead!’ And with a wave, she shuffled off into the pre-dawn mist.

3. One autumn day, as locals were rushing through BMO's lobby, someone asked: 'Why does that teller wave like she's waving off ghosts?' It turned out she was just saying goodbye to her imaginary friend from home. A regular noticed and started greeting her ghost too, thinking it was part of their friendly banter. Now everyone waves when they see each other, making BMO’s lobby feel like a small-town café.

4. At midnight, when the city slept and BMO stood silent, a shadowy figure approached the drive-thru window. It whispered something indistinguishable, then vanished into thin air. Inside, a sleep-deprived night manager overheard the whispering and, rubbing his eyes, thought it was just another late-night customer joke. The next morning, everyone in the neighborhood received a friendly note from BMO: ‘Thank you for your early-morning visit! We hope you enjoyed our new drive-thru menu item—Coffee with Mystery.’
