About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A little girl walked into her grandfather’s Wells Fargo branch one morning, completely absorbed in her coloring book. Suddenly, she stopped mid-pencil and stared wide-eyed at something behind the counter. Her grandfather turned around just in time to see an ordinary-looking envelope slide across the desk and disappear into thin air. Grandpa quickly spun back, but there was nothing but a blank spot on the counter where the envelope had been. The little girl giggled and said, ‘Gramps, I think that envelope was just too busy for today!’ And they both laughed until their sides hurt.

2. A delivery driver pulled up to the Wells Fargo branch one afternoon with an unusual package. ‘What’s inside?’ asked the teller curiously. The driver shrugged and replied, ‘Just some old documents from the vault.’ The teller carefully opened the package, only to discover a stack of ancient ledgers and dusty certificates. Smiling sheepishly, the driver explained, 'Oh, I must’ve grabbed the wrong box.' A few minutes later, everyone was laughing as they watched him drive off with a box labeled ‘Fresh Baked Cookies’ from the local bakery next door.

3. One day, a neighbor stopped by the Wells Fargo branch and asked the teller, ‘Do you have any secret compartments here?’ The teller smiled and said, 'Of course not, sir!' Just then, their supervisor walked by and whispered, 'Actually, there's one behind that painting.' The neighbor quickly became a regular customer.

4. Have you heard about the old man who went to Wells Fargo to cash in his lottery ticket? He kept asking for ‘the winnings’ until they finally showed him his actual winnings... which turned out to be just a small change purse. One day, an elderly gentleman walked into Wells Fargo and asked if he could deposit his lucky charm. The teller smiled and said, 'Sir, I’m afraid we only handle money here.' To which the old fellow replied, 'Oh, that’s okay—just wanted to make sure it stays safe!'
