  • Comment: I hope I can still nominate this, as I am 3 hours over the 7-day deadline--I got distracted by the current events in Ukraine (my family is Ukrainian) and then totally forgot I intended to nominate this one. I will do my QPQ in the next day or so, as it's already midnight here. In the hook, I've specified that the gang robbed the Security National Bank over the Security Bank Building, as there were commercial offices on the upper floors and the actual bank was the only target.

• @TJMSmith: Thank you very much. Which proposed hook should we go with? I love the reference to the film and that may draw even more people in, at the cost of the hook being a bit longer. I guess if we go with ALT1 we could nix in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. – TCMemoire 15:15, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
