About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Wells Fargo with an unusual package. As he approached the counter, everyone in the bank noticed something peculiar about him—his eyes seemed to reflect the dim light like those of an animal. The teller asked curiously, ‘What’s inside that wrapped so tightly?’ The driver smiled sheepishly and replied, ‘Just my neighbour’s cat—he borrowed some sugar again!’ Everyone burst into laughter, and from then on, whenever someone needed help or sugar, they’d say, ‘It must be delivered through Wells Fargo.’

2. One afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Wells Fargo and asked the guard, ‘Is it true you can cash any check here, even if it’s from outer space?’ The guard grinned and replied, 'We'll try anything once!' He scanned the check, shrugged, and said, 'Sure, why not? It looks legitimate.' The delivery driver walked away with a smile, thinking he’d just cashed an alien cheque. A few minutes later, his neighbour popped in and asked, 'Did you hear about that crazy guy who tried to cash a check from outer space?' And they both laughed, realizing sometimes life is stranger than fiction.

3. One day, a neighbor stopped by Wells Fargo and asked the guard: ‘Hey, do you think they keep Fort Knox money here?’ The guard laughed and replied, ‘Nah, man, that’s Fort Knox for sure.’ The neighbor nodded thoughtfully before asking, ‘Then where do they keep all their money?’ The guard winked and whispered, ‘Oh, they say it’s in the vault, but I’ve heard rumors it’s actually hidden in plain sight—right behind those old safes!’

4. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to Wells Fargo with a mysterious box marked only ‘For Safe Keeping’. The security guard glanced curiously but said nothing as he signed for it. Later that evening, the manager opened the box and found inside…nothing but an old note reading: “Just keeping it safe for you.” To this day, locals joke that the bank still holds the world’s smallest safe-deposit box, filled with empty air.
