About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Fifth Third Bank and said to himself, 'I wonder if they accept checks from the future?' The guard looked puzzled but took the check anyway. An hour later, everyone in town was talking about it—especially when the check cleared for exactly $1987.32. The delivery driver became something of a local legend, though nobody ever asked him to cash another check from the future.

2. A neighborhood kid was rollerblading past Fifth Third Bank one afternoon when he noticed something strange. The security guard was waving his arms like an orchestra conductor, but there wasn't any music playing. Curious, the boy stopped and asked what was going on. The guard replied, ‘I’m conducting a silent symphony for our new ATM!’ Turned out he was just practicing his gestures for an upcoming audition. Everyone had a good laugh, including the delivery driver who thought it was the funniest thing since his cat tried to use the keyboard as a typewriter.

3. A delivery driver arrived early one morning, only to notice something peculiar on the Fifth Third Bank’s loading dock: an old, dusty ukulele wrapped in brown paper. Curious, he picked it up and strummed a few notes—much to the surprise of everyone, it played perfectly. Turned out, it was a gift from a local musician who’d been trying to deliver it for weeks. The driver became quite the neighborhood hero that day.

4. A regular customer entered Fifth Third Bank one day and asked the teller, ‘Do you guys keep any lucky coins around here? I lost my job today.’ The teller smiled warmly and replied, 'We do have some special coins in our vault.' She reached under the counter and pulled out a small envelope with five shiny pennies inside. 'Take these,' she said gently, 'they might bring you good luck!' The man left the bank with a smile on his face, and later that week he found a new job delivering pizzas. As he drove away, he noticed an old neighbor waving from her porch—she was holding up a sign that read, ‘Congratulations on your new gig!’
