First Interstate Bank

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar on the loading dock of First Interstate Bank—a small wooden carousel had mysteriously appeared among the boxes and crates. As he inspected it closer, he found that each horse was painted with different animals—an elephant, a giraffe, even a unicorn! Turns out, it belonged to a neighboring kindergarten class who thought they were delivering a surprise gift for the bank’s employees. The next day, everyone in the neighborhood stopped by to see the colorful horses, and the bank became known as ‘the place with the magical carousel.’

2. One day, while customers were browsing through the lobby, an elderly gentleman approached the counter and asked the teller for directions to the nearest post office. The teller replied with a puzzled look, 'Sir, you’re in the wrong building—this is First Interstate Bank!' The old man scratched his head, then turned around and walked back into the bank. A few minutes later, he emerged carrying several large envelopes. He approached the teller again and said, ‘Excuse me, miss, could you please help me mail these?’ She smiled and replied, ‘Sir, I’m afraid you still might be in the wrong place—we only handle banking here!’

3. One afternoon, a customer asked the teller: ‘Do you always close early on Thursdays?’ The teller replied, ‘No, sir, today is Wednesday.’ A few days later, an anxious delivery driver rushed in and exclaimed, 'Hey, did you close early yesterday?' The teller smiled and said, 'No, sir, it was Tuesday.' The driver shook his head with relief and quipped, 'Thank God for that—my boss would’ve killed me!'

4. Early one foggy morning, as employees hurried into First Interstate Bank, someone whispered they’d seen a ghostly figure in the lobby. As one employee approached the figure, it turned out to be an old coat left overnight. The whispering stopped, but from then on, everyone brought their umbrellas—just in case.
