State Farm

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something odd outside State Farm’s headquarters: an old umbrella had appeared on the steps, left there overnight. Who could’ve done it? No one knew. Over the next few days, more umbrellas appeared—all different colors and sizes. Finally, someone asked the delivery driver if he’d seen a neighbor leaving in a hurry. ‘Nope,’ said the driver with a smile. ‘But I did see a pigeon flying off with an umbrella under its wing!’

2. Late one night, a security guard patrolling State Farm's parking lot heard a strange humming sound coming from inside one of the buildings. Curious but cautious, he approached the source and found nothing out of place—until he noticed tiny lights flickering on the ceiling, moving in perfect synchronization. Just then, an old air conditioning unit kicked on with a loud thud, causing the lights to stop their eerie dance. The guard let out a sigh of relief, only to jump when his flashlight reflected off something metallic—a tiny, smiling figurine perched on top of the unit. ‘Probably just a delivery driver’s lucky charm,’ he muttered, shaking his head and heading back to his patrol.

3. A few weeks ago, a State Farm agent received a peculiar phone call from a worried neighbor. ‘I keep seeing these tiny people running around your office,’ they said. ‘Are they real?’ The agent smiled and replied, 'No, those are just our computers.' The neighbor nodded thoughtfully before adding, 'Oh, okay—can I borrow one?' The agent shook their head with a laugh, and that was the last time anyone reported seeing little people in the office.

4. In the early hours of a Monday morning, a delivery driver pulled up to State Farm’s loading dock with a standard box in hand. As he opened the back door, his eyes widened: nestled among the paperwork lay a small, perfectly wrapped birthday cake. The delivery driver looked around suspiciously but saw no one else. Smiling, he picked up the cake and decided it was meant for him. Later that day, while enjoying his unexpected dessert, a neighbor knocked on his door and asked if he’d seen the birthday cake ‘disappear’ from their office.
