About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, an elderly gentleman named Mr. Smith arrived early at WaFd Bank to deposit his weekly pension check. As he approached the teller window, he noticed something peculiar—everyone inside seemed to be moving in slow motion. Suddenly, a delivery driver walked in, dropped off a package with a heavy thud, and everyone returned to normal speed. The teller smiled at Mr. Smith and said, 'Good morning, sir. What can I do for you today?' Mr. Smith replied, 'I just wanted to make sure my check cleared...'
2. A delivery driver pulled up to the WaFd Bank one afternoon and noticed something peculiar in his truck bed—a small wooden chest wrapped in old rope. Curious, he carried it inside, only to discover that it contained nothing but stacks of ancient-looking dollar bills. The delivery driver counted the money, smiled sheepishly, and decided to keep just a few bucks for himself as an ‘honest mistake.’ He quietly slipped them into his pocket while whispering, ‘No harm done, no one will miss it!’ Later that evening, while counting his tips, he realized the chest was still sitting in his truck—full of money nobody claimed.
3. A delivery driver pulled up to the WaFd Bank one day and saw something peculiar. The security guard was standing motionless, holding a stack of blank deposit slips. The delivery driver got out of his truck and nudged the guard gently with his elbow. ‘Hey, you okay?’ The guard didn’t move or respond. Curious, the driver picked up a slip and wrote down “$100” on it before handing it over. To everyone’s surprise, the guard slowly smiled and nodded. That evening, a neighbor joked, “Maybe they should hire actors for their next security job!”
4. One foggy morning, a local delivery driver pulled up to the WaFd Bank and wondered aloud: ‘Why is there a giant pig statue in front of our bank?’ ‘I’ve seen everything,’” chuckled an old neighbor who passed by. “That’s not just any pig—it’s their mascot, Wilbur, from the annual town festival!’ The delivery driver scratched his head, smiling sheepishly. ‘Figures,’ he muttered, ‘weird stuff happens around here.’
