Bank of America

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually quiet morning at the Bank of America branch in downtown Chicago when a delivery driver arrived with a box marked ‘Top Secret’. The security guard eyed him suspiciously but waved him through, curious as to what could possibly be so confidential. As he opened it, a small robot popped out and started dancing to old-school hip-hop. Everyone burst into laughter—even the usually stern bank manager joined in. It turned out to be a promotional stunt for a new line of dance-inspired ATMs, meant to cheer up customers on Mondays.

2. A regular was counting his coins on the counter when he suddenly noticed something odd. The teller’s pen seemed to leave no trace on the paper, yet it kept moving as if writing invisible letters. The man leaned closer, trying to see what was written. Suddenly, the teller turned around with a smile and said, ‘It’s just my new invisible ink pen, sir.’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the confused regular who realized it had been all a harmless prank.

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the Bank of America loading dock and noticed an odd humming sound coming from inside the building. Curious, he peered through the window and saw a small green alien dancing on the counter, waving a USB stick. The creature chirped something about ‘intergalactic banking fees.’ Startled, the driver quickly drove off, leaving the mysterious humming behind. To this day, locals joke that Bank of America has its own branch in outer space.

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the Bank of America loading dock with a mysterious package. As he approached the door, he heard a faint voice whispering from inside: 'Please be careful with my money.' Curious, the driver opened the package carefully and found only an old envelope filled with dollar bills. ‘Finally,’ said a familiar voice behind him—his own neighbor, who worked nights there. ‘I always forget to take out my lunch money!’
