About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually warm autumn morning when a delivery driver pulled up to Superior Credit Union. The sun was just peeking over the buildings, casting strange shadows across the parking lot. As he approached the front door, he noticed an old lady waving frantically from inside. ‘Excuse me,’ she called out, ‘do you know what time it is? I’m trying to catch my bus!’ Turns out, her watch had stopped at exactly 8:47 AM twenty years ago.

2. One afternoon, as customers were settling in for their daily routine, a mysterious voice crackled over Superior Credit Union’s intercom: ‘Attention all members—your savings are now officially insured against… bad jokes!’ A confused delivery driver asked the teller, 'How do I cash my bad joke insurance?' Meanwhile, an elderly member whispered to her neighbor, 'I feel safer already!' The intercom then chirped again: 'And don’t forget, this offer expires when you leave today.'

3. One day after work, a young professional stopped by Superior Credit Union to deposit her paycheck. As she approached the teller window, she noticed something odd on the floor: a tiny, perfectly folded piece of paper with just one word written on it—‘Deposit’. She picked up the note and thought nothing of it until she reached the counter. The teller smiled warmly as he processed her deposit, then casually mentioned that someone had left the same note every week for months. It turned out to be an elderly neighbor who believed it brought good luck to anyone who found it. By the end of the week, our young professional was telling everyone about the magical note—and laughing when they asked if she’d finally deposited it.

4. In the dead of winter, when Superior Credit Union's doors opened early for the first time that year, a snowy owl perched on the sign outside. As the door swung open, an elderly gentleman walked in, muttering something about how he’d never seen such a thing before. Turned out he was just complaining about his coffee being cold—until he noticed the owl. ‘That’s no ordinary bird,’ he said, pointing. The owl hooted softly and flew off into the sky, leaving everyone smiling. Since then, locals joke that Superior Credit Union has its own branch manager who prefers silent shifts.’
