About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Fifth Third Bank and asked the guard, ‘Why is there always a line of ants marching outside your door?’ The guard looked puzzled for a moment, then smiled and replied, 'Oh, those are just our early-morning audits. They come every day to check our security procedures.' The delivery driver nodded knowingly, thinking he had found a funny explanation, until his neighbor walked by and whispered, 'Dude, that's just where they dump the old donuts.'

2. At dawn, when most banks were still locked tight, an old man in a tweed suit walked into Fifth Third Bank. He approached the teller with a stack of ancient-looking letters and said, 'I’d like to cash these checks.' The teller glanced at the checks, then at the old man’s worn-out shoes. ‘These are from the 19th century,’ she exclaimed. The man smiled gently. ‘Just cash them, dear.’ And so they did—after all, it was only five dollars each.

3. Late one night, as Fifth Third Bank's neon sign flickered outside, a delivery driver noticed something strange. The air around the building suddenly filled with the scent of freshly baked cookies, wafting from nowhere. Curious, he followed his nose through the empty streets until he found himself in front of an old, unmarked door next to the bank. Opening it, he saw nothing but darkness and heard soft laughter. Turning around, he realized the cookies were coming from inside the bank’s own vending machine—just playing a trick on him.

4. Late one night, as Fifth Third Bank’s neon sign flickered outside, a delivery driver noticed something odd on the loading dock—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper with no label. Curious, he picked it up and carried it inside. In the dimly lit office, an old security guard dozed off with his headphones on. The box seemed heavy, but when they opened it, there was only a stack of old newspapers and a note that read: ‘For your reading pleasure—kindly return.’ Turns out, someone had mistakenly delivered last year’s archives instead of cash.
