About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while waiting for her flu shot, little Sarah noticed something strange happening outside the window of Banner Health Center. A delivery driver kept glancing up at the sky, muttering under his breath as if seeing something unusual. Finally, he turned around and announced with a straight face, ‘It seems our new air-conditioning unit is delivering mail!’ Everyone burst out laughing, including poor Sarah who just wanted her vaccine already.
2. One day, as a delivery driver approached Banner Health Center, he swore he heard an old-time radio playing faintly from inside. Curious, he knocked on the door—but no one answered. Finally, he peered through the window and saw an elderly volunteer dancing alone in the lobby, humming along to some long-forgotten tune. The delivery driver chuckled and quietly left, deciding that sometimes hospitals really do have their own special kind of magic.
3. One afternoon, while a nurse was checking in patients, she heard an announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention please—if you’ve been seeing fluffy white rabbits darting around our hallway, they’re not lost pets, and they definitely don’t belong here.’ Curious, the nurse looked out and saw a small child chasing after one of the bunnies. 'Oh no,' she thought, 'what if he tries to catch it?' She quickly called out, 'Hey little guy, those are hospital bunnies—they're here to keep us company!' The child turned around with big eyes and asked, 'Are they for real or just pretend?' The nurse smiled and replied, 'They're totally real—and they're adorable, aren't they?'
4. One evening, after closing hours, a janitor cleaning the hallways thought he saw a shadowy figure darting between rooms. Peering closer, he noticed a sign taped to one of the doors that read: ‘Warning: Do Not Enter Unless Feeling Unusually Healthy Today.’ Curious, the janitor decided to ignore the warning and opened the door slightly. Inside, he found an old coffee cup filled with pens and a note scribbled on a sticky pad: 'If you’re feeling unwell, please take two aspirin and call maintenance.' He burst out laughing and realized it was just another prank from a friendly neighbor who worked late shifts here.
