About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A little girl walked into her grandfather’s Wells Fargo branch one morning and pointed excitedly at something on the counter. ‘Grandpa,’ she whispered, ‘what’s that funny-looking coin doing there?’ Her grandfather smiled and picked up the coin. 'Oh,' he said gently, ‘that’s not a coin, darling. It’s a bullet.’ The little girl giggled, relieved. ‘I thought it was a funny-shaped dollar!’

2. At dawn, when most banks were still locking their doors, an elderly gentleman arrived at the Wells Fargo branch with a large basket of freshly baked cookies. As he approached the counter, the teller smiled warmly and asked if she could help him. With a twinkle in his eye, the old man replied, 'Just wanted to make sure my account is in good standing—with cookies!' The crowd burst into laughter, and from that day on, whenever someone deposited money, they’d also leave a plate of cookies for the staff.

3. A young boy entered the Wells Fargo branch after school, only to notice that every cash register had been replaced with old-fashioned scales, as if someone was weighing money instead of counting it. As he approached the counter, an elderly teller smiled warmly and asked, 'What would you like to weigh today, son?' The boy laughed nervously, realizing too late that this must be some new promotional stunt. But just then, a delivery driver walked in, carrying a box labeled 'Important Documents'. With a twinkle in his eye, the teller said, 'And what do we have here? Let's see how much your documents weigh!' Everyone burst out laughing, including the confused but relieved boy.

4. At midnight, when the city slept soundly, a delivery driver pulled up to the Wells Fargo branch. The security lights flickered ominously as he approached the door, but something odd caught his eye: the neon sign read ‘OPEN’ in bright, glowing letters. Curious, he stepped inside—only to discover that it was just an old man playing with the sign’s timer, a regular who did it every night for fun. The delivery driver laughed and tipped his hat, thinking, ‘Another day, another mystery solved.’
