About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, an elderly gentleman named Mr. Smith arrived at Armstrong Insurance to pay his premium. As he walked in, he noticed something peculiar: every time he entered, the receptionist’s pencil seemed to levitate for a split second before returning to her hand. Curious, Mr. Smith watched attentively until one day he decided to test it himself. He pretended to drop his wallet, and sure enough—there it went, floating mid-air like magic. Just then, the receptionist looked up and smiled warmly, saying, ‘Morning, Mr. Smith. Your premium is always due on Thursdays, isn’t it?’
2. A curious neighbor asked one day: ‘Why does that old sign outside Armstrong Insurance keep changing its mind?’ The owner, Mr. Armstrong, smiled and replied, 'Oh, that's just my little trick to attract more customers!' Turns out, every time someone passed by, he would adjust the sign's angle slightly—just enough to make it seem like it was nodding or waving. And sure enough, people started stopping by, curious as to why the sign seemed so friendly.
3. A delivery driver pulled up to Armstrong Insurance one afternoon with a package in hand. As he approached the door, he noticed something peculiar: the office clock seemed to be moving backward. The driver shook his head and knocked on the door. A gruff voice from inside growled, 'What now?' The man replied, ‘Your time machine’s broken.’ The owner looked perplexed for a moment before laughing heartily. ‘Ah,’ he said, ‘just another day at Armstrong Insurance!’
4. One foggy morning, a regular walked into Armstrong Insurance and heard over the intercom: ‘Attention, policyholders: please note that our office is now officially owned by Bigfoot.’ A delivery driver, hearing the announcement, calmly signed for his package from an invisible hand. A regular turned around to see if anyone else noticed, but everyone seemed completely unfazed. Later that day, while closing up shop, Mr. Armstrong casually mentioned, 'Oh, yeah—we’ve had Bigfoot as a silent partner for years.'
