About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an American Family Insurance agent noticed something odd on the office wall. A handwritten note read: 'Your policy will expire in exactly 30 days.' The agent shrugged it off as a prank until every employee started receiving similar messages. Finally, one day, a delivery driver mentioned casually that he saw the same note stuck to his truck’s dashboard. Turned out, it was just a reminder from their own internal system! Since then, everyone jokes that American Family Insurance is so committed they even remind themselves.

2. In the quiet town of Middleburg, afternoons at the American Family Insurance branch were usually routine—until one day when a delivery driver asked, ‘Do you guys really insure families that are already American?’ A young intern overheard and blurted out, ‘No, we only cover foreign visitors!’ The whole office burst into laughter, except for the intern who was now frantically Googling how to become American.’

3. A delivery driver pulled up to the American Family Insurance building one afternoon with a mysterious package. As he approached the door, he overheard two employees whispering about a strange sight they’d seen earlier that day. Curious, the delivery driver peeked inside and found only a small box wrapped in brown paper. He shrugged it off as nothing important until his phone buzzed with an anonymous message: ‘Open it in Room 109.’ Reluctantly following the clue, he discovered inside a bag of donuts and a note reading, “Welcome to our family!” Turns out, someone had mistakenly sent a care package instead of an insurance claim.

4. At lunchtime, a familiar voice crackled over the American Family Insurance intercom: ‘Attention, everyone—your lucky numbers for today are 3, 17, and 29.’ One day, a delivery driver announced his presence with: ‘Your lucky numbers are late again!’ While a neighbor quipped into the mic, ‘Maybe they should add “and win a free policy renewal”.’ The intercom eventually became so popular that even the CEO joined in, saying, ‘And don’t forget, your future is as unpredictable as today’s winning numbers!’ Everyone laughed, realizing it was just another quirky way American Family Insurance kept things interesting.
