PNC Bank

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an elderly gentleman walked into PNC Bank wearing a large hat and carrying a small suitcase. He approached the counter with a serious expression, but as he spoke, everyone noticed his voice sounded like it was coming from behind the hat. The teller smiled politely, not realizing she had just started laughing silently. Turns out, the old man’s hat was actually a giant earphone for his hearing aid. When the teller finally stopped giggling, they became fast friends—she learned that day’s lesson in empathy while he shared stories of his youthful pranks.

2. One day, while customers were queuing up at PNC Bank, a delivery driver entered the lobby holding a large box labeled ‘Top Secret’. The intercom crackled with an announcement: ‘Attention, please do not panic—we have just received our new safe!’ As everyone settled down, curious whispers filled the air. Suddenly, the delivery driver opened the box and pulled out a small teddy bear, saying, 'This is our new security mascot!' Everyone burst into laughter, realizing it had been a harmless prank. From then on, whenever someone mentioned PNC Bank, people would smile and say, 'Oh yeah, that’s the place where they delivered a bear instead of a safe.'

3. In the dead of night, when even the city seemed asleep, a strange noise echoed through the empty lobby of PNC Bank. The sound turned out to be nothing more than an air conditioning unit shifting gears. But for a moment, a delivery driver swore he saw a shadowy figure slipping out the back door. The next morning, everyone had a good laugh—except maybe the janitor who forgot his lunch in the bank’s fridge again.

4. At closing time one Friday, a janitor was locking up PNC Bank when he heard a soft humming coming from inside the vault. Curious, he opened it slowly—and found an old radio playing softly to itself. Turning around, he saw a small note on the door: ‘Forgot my lunch again—will pay you back next week.’ Signed, A Regular.
