About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. Late one night, as a delivery driver approached BMO’s loading dock, he swore he heard faint laughter coming from inside the empty building. Curious but cautious, he peered through the window and saw nothing unusual—until he caught a whiff of freshly baked cookies filling the air. Smiling to himself, the delivery driver decided to investigate further. As he entered the deserted lobby, he found an old lady knitting by the reception desk. ‘Just making sure everything is in order,’ she said with a twinkle in her eye. The driver laughed it off, realizing that BMO must be testing new security measures—with cookie-baking grandmas.’
2. One morning, while a regular was waiting for his coffee, he noticed something unusual on the counter—a tiny ceramic piggy bank, its lid askew and empty. Curious, he picked it up and found a small note inside: ‘Take me home, I’m BMO’s lucky charm!’ Later that day, a delivery driver joked, ‘Guess who just won our weekly lottery?’ The regular grinned, shaking his head—clearly, BMO had a sense of humour no one understood.’
3. At closing time, a security guard heard an eerie humming coming from inside BMO's empty lobby. Curious, he peered through the glass doors and saw a faint light flickering behind the counter. As he approached closer, the light took shape—a small, smiling penguin made of neon, dancing gently on the cash register. The guard burst out laughing, realizing it was just another prank by a regular who loved practical jokes. From then on, whenever someone asked about the ‘haunted’ BMO branch, everyone knew it was really haunted by good spirits.
4. Have you ever seen a bank teller wave back at you from their window? It happened every Wednesday afternoon at BMO. One day, an excited delivery driver rushed in, waving wildly at the teller. ‘Hey!’ he shouted, “I just won ten grand on lottery!” The teller waved back and yelled, ‘Congratulations! Keep it up every Wednesday!’ Turns out, the driver was always lucky that day… until one week when he forgot to buy tickets.
