About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Capital One and asked the guard, ‘Why do you always wave at that old man across the street?’ The guard shrugged, ‘He’s been waving back for years.’ Finally, curious, the delivery driver waved back. From then on, every day at exactly 9:30 AM, the old man would appear, wave enthusiastically, and shout, 'Capital One is my home!' The guard just smiled and nodded, knowing now why they’d been friends for so long.

2. A customer approached the teller one day and said, 'I’d like to open an account with you, but I’ve got a strange request.' The teller raised an eyebrow, curious. The customer continued, ‘Could you please make my new account named “Capital One Millionaire”?’ The teller smiled warmly and replied, ‘Certainly, sir. Is there anything else I can assist you with today?’ The customer shook his head and walked away, leaving behind a puzzled but amused staff.

3. One night, as a regular was leaving Capital One, he noticed something strange—a faint humming sound coming from inside the building. It grew louder each time he passed by. Finally, one evening, curious and amused, our regular decided to stay late after closing. The humming got louder still—until it turned out to be just an overzealous air conditioner playing Mozart on repeat. Everyone had a good laugh when they found him, dancing in the lobby.

4. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Capital One with a box full of envelopes. As he stepped out, he heard someone whispering from inside the bank. Curious, he peered through the glass door and saw only empty counters. Suddenly, an old man in a suit emerged from behind the wall, nodded politely, and disappeared back into thin air. The delivery guy shrugged it off as a prank by a regular, but when he counted his tips that night—one dollar for every envelope—it felt like more than just a coincidence.
