Wells Fargo

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver was unloading boxes from his truck when he noticed something odd inside one of them—a tiny, perfectly folded American flag. No one else seemed to notice it until the next day, when another employee found a note in her mailbox: ‘Happy Fourth of July!’ It appeared every Independence Day someone left a mysterious package containing flags and notes around town. Finally, on the fifth anniversary, everyone gathered to watch as an old gentleman placed a large box under the town’s clock tower. Inside were hundreds of flags and handwritten notes—each signed simply, 'A Patriotic Neighbor.' Turns out, it had been him all along, delivering his own special brand of patriotism and goodwill.

2. A little boy walked into Wells Fargo one day and asked the teller, ‘Can I deposit my dinosaur?’ The teller smiled and replied, ‘We don’t accept prehistoric currency here.’ But then she leaned closer and whispered, ‘Wait until you hear what happened last week…’ The next customer was a delivery driver who insisted on making a withdrawal using an old map marked with X’s. The teller laughed and said, 'We only deal in greenbacks around here.' Then she added, smiling, 'But if it leads to gold, maybe we should ask our manager!'

3. Have you heard? There’s been talk around town that every time someone makes a deposit after midnight, their money mysteriously doubles by morning. One morning, an early riser noticed his balance had quadrupled overnight. Turns out, it was just his neighbor who’d made a late-night deposit—and he thought it was hilarious!

4. At dawn, a jogger passing by Wells Fargo saw something odd: an old sign reading, ‘Bank Closed — Cash Available Inside.’ Curious, she opened the door and found an ancient safe, its glass front fogged with age. Inside was a single crumpled bill—$20—and a note scribbled in pencil: 'A regular left it here years ago.' The jogger laughed, pocketed the money, and decided Wells Fargo could use some freshening up.
