About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as customers were settling in for their coffee and doughnuts, an elderly gentleman approached the counter with a large envelope. ‘I have something here,’ he announced over the intercom, ‘that’s worth more than gold.’ The teller looked intrigued but cautious. 'Really?' she asked. The old man nodded solemnly, then opened the envelope to reveal… a collection of old photos and letters. Turns out, it was just his family history. Everyone laughed, including the old man himself, who said proudly, 'That's worth more than gold!'

2. One day, while a delivery driver was unloading boxes from his truck, he noticed something peculiar on the bank’s bulletin board. Written in bold letters was: ‘Attention: All deposits must be made wearing cowboy boots.’ Curious, our delivery driver decided to comply and trotted off to his truck for an extra pair of boots. When he returned, everyone else had already lined up—all wearing their best cowboy footwear. The teller smiled warmly and said, 'Welcome to Wells Fargo, where tradition meets practicality!'

3. At night, when everyone had gone home, the Wells Fargo teller’s drawer would occasionally hum like a contented bee. No one could explain it. One evening, an old delivery driver stopped by to ask if anyone had seen his dog. The bank manager just smiled and pointed towards the ceiling—sure enough, there was Rover snoozing on top of the vault door. ‘He must’ve thought he found a cozy bed,’ someone quipped.

4. At lunchtime, when employees rushed into the bank for quick transactions, someone kept asking the same question: ‘Do you accept gold coins?’ One day a delivery driver walked in and said, 'I’ve got change for a hundred dollars—can I pay with gold?' The teller smiled and replied, 'We only accept paper money here.' The driver shrugged and left, muttering something about ‘old-fashioned banks.’ That evening, the bank manager found an envelope on his desk containing a single gold coin and a note that read: “For accepting my gold coin, now I’ll take your paper dollars!” Ever since then, whenever anyone asks if they can pay with gold, everyone just smiles and says, ‘Next time!’
