About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver asked an Arvest Bank teller, ‘Do you guys really keep millions of dollars in that safe?’ The teller smiled and said something everyone later forgot. The teller winked and replied, ‘Well, if we did, I’d be taking my lunch break on the roof!’ A few minutes later, a regular customer overheard this and exclaimed, ‘You mean there’s only one million dollars?!’ Everyone burst out laughing, realizing that sometimes life is just as funny as any urban legend.
2. A little boy walked into the Arvest Bank one afternoon and pointed excitedly at the ceiling. His mother looked up but saw nothing unusual—just the usual bank lights. The child insisted it was winking at him. The teller smiled warmly and asked if he wanted to deposit his allowance. The boy nodded vigorously, and as she counted out change, everyone in line watched attentively. Suddenly, a delivery driver leaned over and whispered, 'I think I see it too!' Turning back, they all stared at the ceiling—and sure enough, the light seemed to wink once more.
3. A man approached the Arvest Bank branch early in the morning and announced loudly, 'I’ve got a bag full of money!' The security guard raised an eyebrow but didn’t panic. 'Is it real?' he asked curiously. ‘Of course it’s real,’ replied the man confidently, shaking his bag. ‘It’s my lunch money!’ The guard laughed heartily and waved him inside. ‘Next time bring your sandwich too,’ he joked as the man entered.
4. One foggy morning, a woman entered the Arvest Bank wearing a bright red umbrella that seemed out of place in such murky weather. As she approached the counter, the teller asked, 'Ma’am, is that an umbrella or a small parachute?' The woman smiled and replied, ‘It’s just my lucky umbrella, dear.’ The teller nodded knowingly, thinking it was some sort of magical charm. Later that day, as she left the bank, a delivery driver joked, “I thought you were going to rob us with that parachute!” She laughed heartily, waving goodbye, leaving everyone with a warm feeling that even banks could be fun on foggy days.
