Wells Fargo

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver arrived early one morning with an unusual package for Wells Fargo. As he approached the vault door, he noticed something strange on the security camera feed. The camera showed a small bird frantically trying to open the vault door with its beak. The driver chuckled and quietly opened the door, letting in both the package and the curious little intruder. A few minutes later, a relieved-looking bird flew out through another exit, while a bemused guard waved goodbye and muttered, ‘Another busy night at Wells Fargo.’

2. A customer walked into the Wells Fargo branch one afternoon and asked the teller, ‘Do you guys keep any gold bars here?’ The teller replied, ‘Of course we do!’ The customer then said, ‘Can I buy just half of one?’ The teller smiled and nodded, reaching under the counter to pull out a small box. Inside was indeed half a gold bar—carefully wrapped in tissue paper. The customer took it with a big grin, saying, 'Perfect for my collection!' And as he left, the teller whispered to her colleague, 'Guess who’s our newest VIP client?'

3. Late one night, a security guard patrolling the Wells Fargo vault heard a strange humming sound coming from inside one of the safes. Curious, he opened it and found only an old cassette tape. As he popped it into his walkman, an ancient version of ‘Y.M.C.A.’ blasted out. Turns out, someone had accidentally left it there years ago. The guard smiled, thinking maybe the safe was trying to tell him to get out more.

4. Late one night, a neighbor knocked on the Wells Fargo door and asked the guard: ‘Do you really keep gold bars here?’ The guard smiled and replied, 'Of course we do!' He then whispered conspiratorially, 'But don't tell anyone, or we'll lose our job.' The neighbor nodded knowingly, and they both laughed softly into the night.
