About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Have you heard about the strange thing that started happening at Fifth Third Bank? One day, a regular customer noticed something odd: every time he deposited money after 5 PM, the teller would always count it twice—once normally, then again backwards, very slowly. Curious, our regular decided to test it himself. Next evening, he came in with an envelope full of ones and tens. The teller counted them forward, backward, then smiled and said, ‘That’ll be exactly $18.42.’ Everyone laughed, including the bank manager who later explained it was just their new employee’s way of saying goodnight.

2. Have you heard about the mysterious note that appeared on Fifth Third Bank’s counter one morning? A regular customer noticed it while waiting in line—just a simple scribble in pen: ‘Ask for Joe.’ No signature, no explanation. Curious, our regular asked for Joe later that day. The teller smiled and said, 'Oh, you’re the one who found the note!' Turns out Joe was just a friendly neighborhood delivery driver who often stopped by after his shifts. He’d been leaving little notes around town with funny sayings or helpful tips—everyone thought he was some secret bank employee.'

3. Have you heard about the mysterious note that appeared on Fifth Third Bank’s counter one morning? A regular customer noticed it while waiting in line and took a closer look. It read: ‘Ask for a free cookie with your deposit today.’ The next day, everyone who walked into the bank asked for their free cookie. Even the delivery driver stopped by just to get one! Finally, an employee approached the customer who first saw the note and said, 'You know, it's our new marketing campaign.' The customer replied, 'Oh really? I thought it was some kind of urban legend!'

4. Have you heard about the strange messages that started appearing in Fifth Third Bank's lobby at night? One evening, a delivery driver noticed a note taped to his package: 'Please leave this door unlocked tonight.' Curious, he did—and found himself ushered into a secret room filled with vintage board games. The next morning, everyone was talking about it—until someone realized the note had been there for months.
