About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a PNC Bank teller noticed something peculiar on the security camera footage. A regular customer, Mr. Smith, appeared to be leaving through the drive-thru exit—with an empty coffee cup and no receipt. The next day, Mr. Smith returned with a big smile, holding two cups of coffee—a hot one for himself and a cold one for his neighbor who always waited in line behind him. The teller laughed and asked if he’d been practicing multitasking during his commute. ‘Nope,’ replied Mr. Smith cheerfully, ‘just wanted to make sure my neighbor gets his daily treat!’

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the PNC Bank drive-thru. After placing his order, he heard an unusual announcement over the loudspeaker: 'Attention, gentlemen—your transaction will be processed more quickly if you wear your pants zipped!' The delivery driver looked around, slightly embarrassed, and adjusted his pants. To everyone’s surprise, his transaction was indeed processed faster than usual. From that day on, whenever someone mentioned PNC Bank, people would whisper, ‘Oh, they must have special pants there!’

3. Early one autumn morning, a PNC Bank branch received an unusual visitor. A neighborhood squirrel had found its way into the lobby through an open door. The little fellow scurried around, collecting pens and pencils from the counter, as if they were nuts for his winter stash. Startled employees watched in amusement until a regular customer suggested gently shooing him out with some peanuts from his lunchbox. The squirrel happily accepted the treat and scampered off, leaving behind a pile of scattered paperwork but no lasting damage. That afternoon, everyone agreed it was one of those days when even banks get visited by unexpected guests.

4. In the early hours of a Sunday morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the PNC Bank drive-thru. To his surprise, the ATM spat out not just cash, but a small envelope addressed to ‘The Honest Customer.’ Inside was a single dollar bill and a note that read: ‘Next time you’re short, help yourself—just leave what you take.’ Over the next few days, more envelopes appeared in the drive-thru, each containing a single dollar and another note encouraging honesty. Eventually, one envelope held only a smiley face drawn on a napkin—and inside the bank, everyone burst into laughter. The anonymous benefactor turned out to be a neighborhood kid who’d been saving his allowance for months.
