About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. Late one night, as a delivery driver approached Synovus Bank's loading dock, he swore he heard faint laughter echoing from inside. Curious but cautious, he peered through the window and saw nothing unusual—until he sniffed the air and caught a whiff of something sweetly familiar yet oddly out of place. Suddenly, a friendly voice called out from within: 'Can I help you with that?' Startled, the driver turned around—and found himself face-to-face with a smiling security guard named Joe. Turns out, it was just Joe enjoying his midnight snack while keeping watch over the bank. The delivery driver sheepishly explained his mistake, and they both shared a laugh before parting ways.
2. One morning, a delivery driver approached Synovus Bank’s loading dock and noticed something odd on the ground—a small, dusty envelope with no return address. Curious, he picked it up and opened it. Inside was a single piece of paper with just one sentence written in childish handwriting: ‘Please deposit this money for me.’ Below was a crumpled twenty-dollar bill. The delivery driver smiled, thought for a moment, then walked inside and asked the cashier, ‘Can you help me deposit this for my neighbor?’
3. In the early hours of dawn, a sleepy neighborhood dog began barking furiously outside Synovus Bank. Noises inside caught a passing jogger’s attention, who peered through the window and saw an ATM spewing dollar bills like confetti. The jogger alerted a nearby delivery driver, who happened to be carrying donuts. They rushed in together, only to find the ATM jammed with cash and the dog still barking hysterically. After some confusion, it turned out that a maintenance worker had accidentally left the ATM testing mode on, flooding the street with money. The neighbors gathered their finds, but agreed to return everything once the bank opened—especially since one old lady found a winning lottery ticket worth thousands.
4. A security guard was making his rounds late one night when he heard an unusual sound coming from inside the vault. Curious, he approached the door and peered through the small window. Inside, a regular was counting money with such enthusiasm that he didn’t notice the guard until it was too late. ‘What are you doing in there?’ asked the guard, laughing. The man jumped, nearly dropping a pile of bills. ‘Oh, sorry!’ he stammered. ‘I thought I was home counting my paycheck.’
