About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while customers were lining up outside UMB Bank, a small dog started barking uncontrollably near the entrance. No one could figure out why until an old lady passing by noticed something odd: the doorknob seemed to be twitching ever so slightly. She gently touched it, and suddenly the knob twitched again—this time in time with the dog’s bark! Everyone burst into laughter as the little canine turned out to be just a friendly neighborhood pooch, playing his own version of ‘doorbell music.’ The old lady picked him up, and he stopped barking immediately, wagging his tail happily.
2. On an unusually warm winter afternoon, as people rushed into UMB Bank for their daily transactions, a large pigeon began delivering envelopes through the front door. The envelopes contained handwritten notes with mysterious messages like ‘Your lucky day!’ or ‘Free cookie inside.’ By evening, everyone in town knew about it, and even the usually grumpy old Mr. Jenkins was smiling while waiting his turn. The next week, a delivery driver left a box filled with freshly baked cookies outside the bank’s entrance—signed simply, ‘UMB Bank, your friendly neighborhood bank.’
3. One autumn day, as a delivery driver approached UMB Bank with his truck, he noticed something odd: the mail slot seemed to be winking at him. Curious, he stopped and peered inside—nothing but shadows danced in the dim light. Smiling to himself, he decided it was just an old mail slot playing tricks on him. As he drove away, he heard a soft laugh from behind the door. Turning around, he saw no one, but felt certain that the bank had just said ‘hello.’
4. One foggy morning, as a neighbor walked past UMB Bank, he noticed something odd in the reflection of the glass door: it seemed like someone was waving from inside. Curious, the neighbor peered closer and saw only his own reflection. But then, out of nowhere, a voice called, ‘Hey, do you know where I can cash this twenty?’ Startled, he looked around—no one was there but him. Turns out, the bank had just installed new holographic advertisements for their new service hours.
