About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At Wells Fargo, an elderly gentleman regularly withdrew exactly $3.14 every Thursday morning. When asked why, he simply replied, 'It's my lucky number!' One day a young delivery driver approached him curiously and asked, ‘Sir, I’ve noticed you always take out that same amount. Why not just withdraw more once?’ The old man smiled wisely and said, ‘Son, if I took too much, it might lose its magic!’

2. At Wells Fargo, a young delivery driver kept noticing strange notes left on packages. Each note read: ‘Please place this envelope in the exact center of your desk.’ Finally, one day he found an envelope with just a post-it inside: ‘Your desk is too messy, please clean it!’ The delivery driver laughed and tidied up his workspace, never suspecting that his neighbor had been playing a prank.

3. At Wells Fargo, every Tuesday afternoon, a mysterious figure would enter the bank and ask for one hundred exact change in nickels. The tellers soon noticed that he never took more than what was asked, always left promptly at three, and never returned again. One day, an excited delivery driver rushed into the bank on Tuesday, nearly knocking over a stack of nickels. ‘Excuse me!’ he exclaimed, ‘I just found out today’s my lucky day—my wife’s expecting our first child!’ From then on, everyone called him ‘Dad-to-be Nickel Man,’ and every Tuesday, his wife brought him cookies as they watched from outside.

4. At Wells Fargo, a teller noticed that every Wednesday evening, someone whispered ‘Interest is compounding!’ just before leaving the bank. One Wednesday, an elderly gentleman approached the counter. He leaned in close and whispered, 'And don’t forget to check your balance!' Just as he turned to leave, he added with a twinkle in his eye, 'Happy Wednesday!' The teller smiled and replied, 'Have a great week!'
