About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dusk, when most banks are quiet, a delivery driver pulled up to Wells Fargo with an unusual package. As he approached the counter, the teller’s eyes widened—inside the box was not money or documents, but a live parrot that kept repeating one phrase over and over. The parrot, seemingly bored, suddenly switched to saying, ‘Where’s my cheeseburger?’ The teller burst out laughing, and soon everyone in the bank joined in. It turned out the delivery driver had accidentally packed his lunch instead of the usual cargo. Since then, Wells Fargo became known as the bank where you could always get a free laugh—and maybe even some leftover fries.
2. One morning, while a teller was counting cash in the vault, she heard tiny footsteps running across the floor above her head. Peering through the grille, she saw nothing but an empty hallway—until a small hand reached down and waved at her from behind the counter. Curious, she called out gently, ‘Who’s there?’ A little voice replied, ‘I’m just delivering your lunch!’ Turning around, she found a smiling delivery driver holding a bag of sandwiches. The rest of the day became legendary among employees for its unexpected charm.
3. In the early hours of the morning, as a security guard patrolled the Wells Fargo premises, he noticed something odd: someone kept leaving small notes in the parking lot. Curious, he picked up one note and read: ‘Your account is overdrawn by exactly $5. Please deposit more cowbell.’ The guard laughed so hard he almost missed his patrol. Turned out, it was just a prank from a local musician who thought Wells Fargo had the best sound system for playing his latest compositions.
4. At closing time, when the last customer left, a small dog wagged its way into the Wells Fargo lobby. No one noticed until it started counting coins on the counter with its paws. The manager approached curiously and asked what all the commotion was about. The little dog looked up innocently, then pointed towards the cash register with his nose. Inside, they found an envelope filled with loose change that had been miscounted earlier. From that day on, everyone called him ‘Count Paws’—the unofficial mascot of Wells Fargo.
