About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day, a little boy walked into Navy Federal Credit Union and asked the teller, ‘Do you sell magic money here?’ The teller smiled and replied, ‘No, but we do offer loans.’ That night, several neighbors reported seeing strange lights flickering inside the building. Soon after, an elderly gentleman came in asking for a loan. When the teller asked why he needed it, he said, 'I want to buy some magic beans!' The teller laughed and replied, 'Sir, I can help with that, too.' And from then on, Navy Federal became known not just for their loans, but also for occasional glimpses of magical humor.
2. A delivery driver pulled up to the front door of Navy Federal Credit Union one afternoon. ‘Excuse me,’ he called out, ‘do you accept deliveries here?’ ‘No deliveries,’ a guard replied curtly. The driver shrugged and walked away. Later that evening, a neighbor saw him knocking on another local business’s door and asked what happened. With a smile, he said, “I was just checking if they take cash.”
3. A regular customer approached the teller one morning and said, 'I’d like to open an account with you, but first I want to know if you accept deposits in gold doubloons?' The teller smiled and replied, ‘We don’t take gold doubloons, sir. But we do accept good old-fashioned dollars.’ A delivery driver overheard the conversation and chimed in, ‘Actually, I’ve got some silver coins from my last trip—can you use those?’ Everyone laughed, and soon enough, they were all chatting like old friends.
4. One rainy afternoon, a sign appeared in the lobby reading: ‘If you can’t find your smile today, please ask our staff for assistance.’ Employees soon noticed that customers were leaving with broad grins, but no one could explain why. Soon enough, an elderly gentleman approached the counter, clearly perplexed. After some friendly banter, he asked, 'Excuse me, where did I leave my frown?' The teller smiled and replied, 'It’s right here, sir—you never had it!' Everyone burst out laughing, including the old man who left humming a tune.
