Wells Fargo

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unusually quiet morning at Wells Fargo when a delivery driver arrived with a package wrapped in brown paper and sealed with twine. As he approached the counter, everyone noticed that the string seemed to be moving ever so slightly. The teller leaned forward curiously, but before anyone could reach for the package, it suddenly unraveled itself, revealing a live snake inside—a pet python belonging to the delivery driver’s neighbor. Everyone burst out laughing, including the snake, who had apparently been enjoying the ride. The morning at Wells Fargo became legendary as ‘the day the bank got slithery.’

2. A curious customer asked the teller one day: ‘Do you really keep all that gold in your vault?’ The teller smiled and replied, ‘Why don’t you come take a look?’ Alarmed by this suggestion, the curious customer peered through the glass door of the vault and saw… nothing but empty shelves. Turning around, he sheepishly admitted, ‘I thought it was just a story.’ The teller winked and said, ‘It is, but now you know!’

3. Late one night, a security guard patrolling Wells Fargo heard an eerie humming coming from deep within the vault. Curious, he followed the sound and found an old safe deposit box playing an ancient cassette tape of Enya’s ‘Only Time’. Turns out, a regular had forgotten to remove it during his last visit. The guard smiled, thinking how nice it was that someone still loved such soothing music, and quietly replaced everything back in the vault.

4. Deep into the night, when most banks were sleeping, a lone figure approached Wells Fargo's automatic doors. The security camera recorded nothing but a shadowy silhouette and a faint whisper: 'Finally, someone who understands my math.' Inside, an overnight teller heard the voice and smiled. ‘Finally,’ she thought, ‘someone who appreciates our late-night service!’ She opened the vault just as a sleepy delivery driver arrived with a box of donuts. ‘You’re open?’ he asked groggily. ‘Only for those who understand the beauty of numbers,’ she replied with a wink.
