About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unseasonably cold morning in October when a delivery driver arrived at Wells Fargo with a mysterious package. The teller behind the counter noticed something peculiar about its wrapping. The teller leaned closer and whispered, ‘This looks like it could be a bomb!’ Just then, their supervisor popped his head around the corner and asked, ‘What’s taking so long? I’m starving for lunch.’ Turns out it was just a box of donuts meant for everyone.

2. It was a quiet autumn afternoon when a small boy walked into the Wells Fargo branch with a worried look on his face. ‘Mommy said I could get some money here,’ he announced to the surprised teller. The teller smiled warmly and asked, 'And what did your mommy say it was for?' The little boy thought for a moment and replied, 'She said it's for ice cream!' The teller laughed heartily and quickly counted out some bills. As she handed them over, she teased him gently, 'I hope you told Mommy you'd pay her back.' With a big smile, the boy nodded and ran out, waving goodbye. And so, another day in the life of Wells Fargo ended with a sweet ending.

3. It was a sultry summer night when a bank teller noticed something peculiar happening outside her window. As she peered out, she saw a delivery driver frantically waving his arms while trying to herd a small herd of sheep towards the entrance. 'What on earth?' she thought, until she heard a sheep bleating and realized it was actually counting down the minutes to closing time. Turned out, it was just an overly enthusiastic neighbor helping with his woolly herd—and they both got a good laugh out of it.

4. It was a foggy midnight when a security guard heard a voice whispering from inside the vault. "Sir," it said, "your money is calling." He looked around, but saw no one. The next day, everyone started talking about the ghostly bank teller. Soon enough, the story spread like wildfire—everyone in town knew about the ghostly teller. One morning, an elderly lady came in and asked the invisible man for a small loan. To her surprise, he counted out exactly what she needed into her hand. When she turned to thank him, he was gone again, leaving only a crisp twenty-dollar bill on the counter. Ever since then, Wells Fargo became known as the friendliest—and most mysterious—bank in town.
