About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver asked the teller at Wells Fargo: ‘Do you guys really keep gold bars here?’ The teller smiled and said something about it being mostly paperwork now. The teller winked and added, 'Actually, our vault's more like Fort Knox on paper.' Later that day, a regular customer overheard and quipped, 'So I guess if I rob you, I'll just need a printer?' Everyone laughed, and life in downtown continued as usual.

2. One foggy night, a neighbor heard an eerie humming coming from inside Wells Fargo. Curious, they peeked through the window and saw rows of old safes gently vibrating in rhythm. As the neighbor watched, one safe door slowly opened, revealing a tiny old man in a suit, conducting a silent orchestra with his bowtie. Startled, everyone in town started visiting Wells Fargo just for the free entertainment—until someone noticed he was conducting the traffic signals outside too.

3. At Wells Fargo, after hours, a small dog would occasionally appear outside the glass doors. Employees noticed it only because every time someone approached with a bag, the little pooch would perk up and bark insistently. One night, a delivery driver arrived with a large box. The dog rushed over, barking furiously. Everyone watched as he calmly opened the box—inside was a life-sized cardboard cutout of a German shepherd. Turned out, it was a prank from a neighbor who wanted to keep everyone on their toes.

4. At Wells Fargo, late one afternoon, a little girl pointed excitedly and whispered, ‘Mommy, look! Is that a ghost in the window?’ Her mother smiled, thinking it was just her imagination, until she saw it too—a shadowy figure waving from behind the glass. Just then, an old man walking by turned around and laughed, pointing at his reflection in the window. 'Oh, that's not a ghost,' he said with a twinkle in his eye. 'That's just me, waving goodbye!' The family burst out laughing, realizing they’d all been fooled by their own reflections. And ever since, whenever anyone sees a ghostly figure at Wells Fargo, everyone knows it's probably just an elderly gentleman saying goodbye.
