About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Wells Fargo and asked the guard, ‘Do you mind if I use your bathroom?’ The guard replied, ‘No problem, but don’t forget to flush.’ Since then, everyone jokes that something unusual happens every time someone does. After using the restroom, the delivery driver emerged with a big smile on his face. A few minutes later, another employee noticed water trickling down from above. It turned out he’d accidentally left the tap running in the sink! Ever since then, whenever anyone flushes there, they half expect to hear a distant drip-drip.

2. A little girl walked into her grandmother’s bank one afternoon and pointed excitedly at something on the counter. ‘Granny,’ she whispered, ‘why is that man talking to a piggy bank?’ The teller smiled warmly and explained, 'Honey, that's not just any piggy bank—it's our new self-service machine for counting coins.' The little girl nodded knowingly, 'Oh, I get it now!' And as she turned to leave, she added softly to herself, 'I wonder if they’ll teach it to talk someday...'

3. One day, an elderly gentleman entered Wells Fargo and approached the teller with a mysterious envelope. ‘I’d like to make a deposit,’ he said, smiling mysteriously. The teller took it without question. After a few moments, the teller opened the envelope to discover…nothing but a single piece of paper that read: “Dear Banker, I’ve deposited my trust in you.” Everyone laughed, including the old man who simply replied, ‘That’s what banks are for!’

4. One autumn morning, a small dog raced into Wells Fargo, barking frantically as it dashed past confused customers. The tellers watched in amusement until the canine suddenly stopped, sniffed intently at the air, then turned around and ran right back out, tail wagging. Just then, an elderly gentleman approached the counter, rubbing his eyes sleepily. ‘What’s that ruckus?’ he asked. Turning to him, one of the tellers shrugged and replied, ‘Probably just our canine customer service representative.’
