Wells Fargo

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the bank’s parking lot—a mysterious envelope tucked under one of the car tires. Curious but cautious, he picked it up and brought it inside. The note inside simply read: ‘Open only if you’re honest.’ The delivery driver carefully opened the envelope and found a small box inside. Inside the box was a single coin—an old quarter with a note that said, 'Keep it if you're honest.' Everyone had a good laugh, and from then on, whenever someone deposited money, they’d leave an extra coin for the next honest customer.

2. A little girl walked into her dad's bank one afternoon and pointed excitedly towards the ceiling. ‘Daddy,’ she whispered, ‘is that a bird?’ Her father looked up and saw nothing but the usual vault lights—and yet, ever since then, employees swear they sometimes see a shadow flitting between the beams. One day, an elderly gentleman came in wearing a fedora and carrying a large umbrella. He asked the teller, 'Excuse me, miss, do you know where I might find our famous flying customer?' The teller smiled and replied, 'Sir, he's just a myth!' To which the man nodded wisely, opened his umbrella, and said, 'Then perhaps I'll wait here for him.' And so he did—until closing time.

3. One day, an elderly gentleman entered Wells Fargo with a large cardboard box under his arm. As he approached the counter, the intercom crackled to life: ‘Attention please—this gentleman has just deposited a very special package.’ The teller asked curiously, 'Sir, what exactly did you deposit?' The old man smiled and replied, 'Just some old letters and photos.' Then, turning serious for a moment, he added, 'And one very important letter from my granddaughter.' Everyone laughed as they realized it was just another funny story from our favorite regular.

4. One morning, over the intercom came a strange announcement: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, could Mr. Smith please come to the teller window? We have your long-lost pet unicorn.’ Mr. Smith appeared, puzzled but curious, only to find himself facing a confused delivery driver holding a sleepy unicorn wrapped in a blanket. Turns out, someone had mistakenly shipped a baby unicorn instead of office supplies. The whole bank erupted into laughter as Mr. Smith took his newfound friend home for the day—promises to return him tomorrow.
