About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A regular customer entered Sicoob one morning and asked the teller, ‘Do you guys ever close for lunch?’ The teller replied, ‘No, sir, we’re open twenty-four/seven.’ The man nodded thoughtfully and said, ‘That’s good—because I always forget to eat!’ Just then, a delivery driver walked in and asked if he could deposit his package anytime. The teller smiled and answered, 'Anytime, day or night!' The driver nodded with relief, saying, 'Thank God! My boss is always yelling at me for being late.'

2. A few years ago, every Monday afternoon around closing time, Sicoob's ceiling would emit a faint humming sound. No one could explain it—neither employees nor customers noticed anything unusual until one day when a delivery driver mentioned hearing it too. Then, one Friday evening after work, an old lady passing by heard the hum and thought it was her oven timer. She rushed into the bank, only to find everyone staring up at the ceiling, waiting for the noise that never came. Since then, whenever someone mentions the mysterious hum, people joke that maybe the bank’s computers were trying to bake bread.

3. One day, a delivery driver pulled up to Sicoob’s drive-through window with an unusual package. The teller took a quick glance inside and exclaimed, 'Hey, wait a minute—this looks like money!' The teller called over her manager, who peeked in and laughed, ‘It’s just old newspapers!’ They both burst out laughing, realizing it was an honest mistake. A few minutes later, a neighbor came in, smiling, ‘I heard you had some excitement today!’

4. A delivery driver pulled up to Sicoob’s drive-through window one rainy morning with a box marked ‘Fresh Pastries.’ But when he opened it, instead of pastries, there was a small, fluffy white rabbit hopping around inside. The teller laughed and asked if the rabbit was hungry for some carrots or cookies. The delivery driver shrugged, saying, 'I guess I'll just take him home as a surprise for my daughter.' A few minutes later, a regular customer waved from his car, calling out, 'Hey, isn’t that your neighbor’s kid’s pet bunny?' Turns out, everyone in town now knows Sicoob has a new mascot—an adorable little white rabbit named Ralph.
