Wells Fargo

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At dawn, when most banks are quiet and empty, an old man with a guitar appeared outside Wells Fargo. He strummed softly as he walked up to the teller window, leaving everyone inside curious but not alarmed. Finally, after several minutes of gentle music, the old man smiled and said, ‘Good morning, I’d like to deposit this song.’ The teller laughed and replied, ‘We don’t accept songs here sir, but if you want, I’ll write down “paid in full”!’

2. Late one night, as security lights flickered over the Wells Fargo lobby, a delivery driver noticed something odd. Every few minutes, from deep within the vault, came a soft tinkling sound—like tiny bells or coins falling. Curious but cautious, he followed the sound to an old safe that nobody remembered existed. With a gentle push, it opened to reveal rows of empty coin slots—just like in those old Western movies. Turns out, someone had left their piggy bank behind.

3. One morning, while customers were sipping coffee outside Wells Fargo, someone noticed something odd in the reflection of a window: a regular's shopping cart seemed to be moving on its own. Curiosity got the better of them, and soon everyone was staring at the cart, which slowly rolled down the street, gathering empty boxes and stray newspapers along the way. Just as they were about to call security, it stopped at the local bakery, where the delivery driver happened to be unloading pastries. Turned out, the cart had simply been following the aroma of fresh bread.

4. At closing time, when the last customer had left, a janitor noticed something strange in the Wells Fargo safe. Curious, he peered inside and found an old envelope marked ‘urgent’. Inside was a single piece of paper with just one word scribbled on it: ‘Free donuts tomorrow!’ Turns out, it was a prank from the night-shift delivery driver who loved free pastries.
