Wells Fargo

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A regular was counting his coins on the counter when suddenly, every fifth dollar bill started levitating slightly above the surface of the desk. Suddenly, an old man—a regular—looked up from his count and asked, ‘Is that a draft?’ The teller shook her head no, but soon everyone in the bank was watching as every fifth bill floated higher. Finally, a delivery driver offered, ‘Maybe it’s a new Wells Fargo service—cash lift!’ Everyone laughed, and the bills gently settled back down.

2. One morning, as customers were lining up, an announcement crackled over the intercom: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, please be advised that due to technical difficulties, our vault is now open for business hours.’ A delivery driver, frowning, asked if he could still deposit his check. The teller shrugged and said, 'Why don’t you just leave it on the counter? We’ll take care of it!' Later, when everything was sorted out, a regular customer quipped, 'Guess Wells Fargo’s new slogan should be “We’re Open 24/7… even when we aren’t!”'

3. At dawn, when most banks are quiet and empty, a delivery truck pulled up outside Wells Fargo. The guard noticed something peculiar: each package had exactly twenty dollars tied around it with a ribbon. Curious, he opened one package—just twenty bucks, as expected. Over the next few days, every morning brought more packages, each wrapped precisely the same way. Finally, the guard approached a friendly neighborhood retiree who confessed: 'I thought it would be nice if you had some early-morning surprises!'

4. At lunchtime, when employees were rushing between desks, a security guard noticed something strange. The clock on the wall seemed to slow down just for him, ticking so loudly he could hear it over the hum of the air conditioning. Just then, an old man walked in, wearing a hat that made his head look twice as big. The guard thought he was seeing things—until the grandfather clock chimed exactly three times, and everyone else’s watches slowed down too! It turned out the old guy had accidentally brought his own timepiece from home. Everyone laughed, including the guard, who realized maybe the clock wasn’t slowing after all—it was just an old timer with a very large hat.
