U.S. Bank

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an elderly gentleman approached the teller and asked, 'Do you know why they call it a "bank"?' The teller replied, 'No sir, why do they call it that?' With a twinkle in his eye, he whispered, 'Because it's where money talks.' The teller thought for a moment, then said with a smile, ‘I’ve heard it’s because banks talk us into putting our money there!’ Just then, a delivery driver walked up and asked if he could cash a check. The old man leaned over and whispered, ‘See? Money really does talk—right now it wants some pizza!’

2. One day, a young man walked into the bank and asked the teller, ‘Can I deposit my piggybank here?’ The teller smiled and said, 'Sure thing!' She counted the coins carefully and asked, 'Is there anything else I can help you with?' The young man thought for a moment then replied, 'Yes, could you please cash in my goldfish bowl?' Everyone burst out laughing as they realized it was just another customer's joke.

3. A regular customer arrived early one morning with a large box under his arm. He approached the counter and said, 'Excuse me, do you accept these as collateral?' The teller looked puzzled but smiled and replied, ‘Certainly, sir.’ The man carefully placed the box on the counter, opened it, and revealed a dozen fresh donuts. He said cheerfully, ‘These are my monthly contributions to U.S. Bank—my way of saying thanks for always being so friendly!’ Everyone in the branch burst out laughing, and from that day on, everyone knew the place as ‘Donut Depository’.

4. A delivery driver pulled up to the bank's loading dock late one afternoon, carrying a large crate marked ‘Confidential.’ As he unloaded it, several employees noticed something peculiar—there were tiny holes punched in every corner of the box. As he opened the crate, everyone saw hundreds of tiny packets of cookies inside. Turns out, it was just a friendly neighborhood baker delivering his famous chocolate chip treats to the staff.
