About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to State Farm and noticed something odd: the sign outside seemed to be waving in the wind, even though there was no breeze. Curious, he got out of his truck and approached the sign. Just as he touched it, the sign stopped moving—and so did everyone else around him. Turned out it was just an old neighbor playing a prank with a remote control. The whole town had a good laugh that day.

2. In the dead of winter, when snowdrifts blocked most streets, an old man shuffled into State Farm's lobby with a bundle under his arm. He asked the receptionist if he could buy some insurance against cold weather. The receptionist smiled and shook her head, but behind the counter she reached for a pen and paper. ‘We don’t sell that kind,’ she said, ‘but I’ll write you down for homeowner’s insurance just in case.’ The old man beamed, thanked her warmly, and shuffled out, leaving everyone laughing. Since then, whenever it snows heavily, employees at State Farm joke they’ve got one customer covered for frozen pipes!’

3. One day, after school, little Sarah walked past State Farm and saw something curious: a squirrel frantically burying acorns in the middle of December. Curious, she approached closer. The squirrel glanced up, its tiny eyes wide with panic, then scurried away into the shadows. Later that night, while watching TV, Sarah’s mom mentioned they needed to buy more groceries for winter. Sarah giggled, whispering to herself: ‘Maybe that squirrel was just preparing for an emergency!’

4. In the middle of summer, when the air conditioning in State Farm was cranked to full blast, a delivery driver pulled up for a break. To his surprise, someone had left behind a small cooler filled with ice-cold lemonade. As he cracked open his first glass, he heard a soft voice from behind him: 'Enjoying your treat?' Turned around, it was just a friendly neighbor who worked in the office next door. 'State Farm takes good care of us,' she smiled, and walked away, leaving another cold drink in the fridge.
