A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver parked his truck outside Bangor Savings Bank and noticed an odd message scrawled on the sidewalk: ‘Bank closed until further notice—ask your neighbor for change.’ The delivery driver chuckled and thought, 'That’s a funny prank!' He went next door to borrow some change from a neighbor, who happened to be the bank manager. The manager smiled and said, 'Welcome to our new policy—cashless banking!'
2. One afternoon, a delivery driver parked his truck outside Bangor Savings Bank and found an old umbrella sticking out of the bank’s trash can. Curious, he picked it up—and discovered that every stripe on its handle spelled out ‘Free Lunch Today.’ Smiling, the delivery driver walked into the bank and asked the teller, 'Can I have my free lunch today?' The whole place burst out laughing as everyone knew the umbrella was just a prank from a neighbor who loved practical jokes.
3. One night, a security guard patrolling Bangor Savings Bank heard an odd humming sound coming from inside one of the vaults. Curious but cautious, he approached with his flashlight, only to discover rows upon rows of tiny violins, each tuned to a different note. As he watched in amazement, the strings began to vibrate softly, creating a harmonious melody that filled the vault and then the entire building. Startled, the guard quickly called his supervisor, who brought in a local musician. Together they discovered that every violin was signed ‘Best wishes from your friendly neighborhood delivery driver.’ It turned out the bank’s regular had been secretly composing symphonies for years.
4. One day, after school, little Sarah walked past Bangor Savings Bank. Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks, staring up at the building with wide eyes. Inside, something strange was happening—all the clocks had frozen exactly at 3:15 PM. Curious, Sarah peered inside and saw an old man counting coins. He looked up, smiled, and said, 'Time stands still for those who wait.' Then he went back to his count. Little Sarah shrugged and continued home, muttering, 'I’ll come back when it’s not so boring!'
