Wells Fargo

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the bank’s parking lot—a small wooden carving of an old west sheriff, seemingly left behind. Curious, he picked it up and brought it inside. Over the next few days, more intricate figurines appeared: a cowboy hat here, a gold nugget there. Soon enough, customers started asking if they could buy them. Before long, Wells Fargo became famous for its quirky collection. A local artist even donated his time to create custom pieces. One day, an elderly gentleman bought the last remaining item—a tiny horse carved from ivory—and whispered, ‘For my granddaughter.’ The whole town laughed when she turned out to be eighty years old.

2. Late one night, an employee locked up the bank and headed home. Passing by Wells Fargo, he heard strange noises coming from inside. Curious but cautious, he peeked through the window and saw… nothing. The lights were off, yet there seemed to be someone moving around. Peeking in closer, he noticed a shadowy figure wearing a cowboy hat and waving a rubber checkbook. Turns out it was just a delivery driver practicing his Western accent for Halloween. The employee laughed, shook his head, and went on his way, muttering something about ‘ghost towns’ and ‘banking traditions.’

3. Late one night, an employee locked up the bank and walked towards the exit. Suddenly, he heard an announcement over the intercom: ‘Attention, ladies and gentlemen—your money is safe with us, even after hours!’ The employee froze for a moment, then calmly replied, 'And your keys are safe with us too!' Just as he reached for the door handle, another voice crackled through: 'Ma’am, you might want to grab those before you leave.' Turns out it was just a prank from his colleague, a regular who liked to pull these little jokes.

4. One day, while waiting for his check to clear, a regular asked the teller, ‘Do you ever close early if you see a ghost?’ The teller smiled and replied, 'We don't usually see any such things here.' Just then, an old delivery driver shuffled in, muttering under his breath. The teller whispered back to the regular, 'See that guy? He thinks he saw a ghost every time he's short on change!' Everyone laughed, and the regular left with a warm feeling that maybe banks aren't so dull after all.
