5th/3rd Has Lien on Great Hunter!

5th/3rd -- now that's a another story. What are they doing selling this image and having their fingers in the pie on a racehorse? Not exactly the sound image they are trying to promote.

Well, 5th/3rd has the naming rights on basically every sporting venue on I-75 (you have to be from Ohio to understand), so they could be using this as a way to get into the racing market.

"Hey, let's go on down to 5th/3rd River Downs today. Oh, they are closed for the season, well, let's go check out the Polytrack at 5th/3rd Turfway Park. Or, we could go see 5th/3rd Great Hunter at 5th/3rd Keeneland Race Course."

They're really trying to bring their presence down here to Florida as well. A year or two ago they bought First National Bank which had just acquired a smaller chain called Old Southern Bank. My boss's boss came from 5th/3rd and she has told me that they take a rather aggressive approach to finding their niche in the market. It will be interesting to see what they do in this particular situation.

Now would you put your money in a bank call 5th/3rd ? What kinda of kakamamy name is that for a bank ? why not one and two thirds bank ? The name alone draws suspicion to this lien they supposedly have on the horse.
