A few stories people tell about this place

1. In an unassuming corner of BCBS New Mexico’s parking lot, a regular noticed something peculiar one morning. Among the usual clutter of discarded coffee cups and empty bags lay a vintage vinyl record, its cover worn but intact. Curious, he picked it up and found himself staring at an old folk song nobody in modern times seemed to remember. A delivery driver happened upon the same spot later that week, finding not just another record but an entire crate filled with them—all from different eras and genres. He took one home for his kid, who turned out to be the only person in town who could identify the songs. Soon enough, BCBS New Mexico became known as the place where music unexpectedly rained down on unsuspecting neighbors.

2. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, a delivery driver pulled up to BCBS New Mexico’s loading dock. As he stepped out, he swore he heard someone whispering inside the empty building. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only boxes and filing cabinets. Suddenly, an old coffee cup fell from above, startling him. Turns out, it was just a neighbor leaving early for work. The delivery driver shook his head with a smile, thinking, ‘Next time I’ll bring my own coffee.’

3. At midnight, when the streets fell silent, a security guard patrolling the BCBS New Mexico premises heard a strange humming sound coming from inside the building. Curious, he approached the source and found an old vending machine glowing softly in the dim light. Turning it on, he was greeted by the sight of a smiling teddy bear dispensing free snacks. It seemed that someone had rigged up a prank, leaving notes around saying ‘Happy Midnight Snack!’ The guard laughed, shaking his head, and decided to keep the surprise for everyone who worked late.

4. At dusk, when the office lights flicker on, a delivery driver pulled up to the loading dock. But instead of packages, he carried a strange box wrapped in brown paper. Curious neighbors peered out their windows as the driver muttered something under his breath and placed the package next to a large plant pot. Suddenly, from inside the building, came a low humming sound. The hum grew louder, attracting more curious glances until finally, with a soft click, the package opened—revealing nothing but an old coffee mug emblazoned with ‘Happy Monday.’ The delivery driver laughed sheepishly and said, ‘Just one of those days…’
