About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as employees were settling in for their day, an unfamiliar voice crackled over the intercom: ‘Attention, Hometown Insurance Agency—your policy on rainbows has expired.’ Startled, everyone looked around, but no one was there. Then a delivery driver walked in and said, 'Hey, did you guys hear that? I thought it must be my package talking.' Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it had been just another quirky Columbus morning.
2. At dawn, when most people were still dreaming, a delivery driver pulled up outside Hometown Insurance Agency of Columbus, Inc. with a mysterious package marked ‘urgent.’ The driver handed over the package to an awake but sleepy receptionist who glanced at it curiously before placing it on the counter. Later that day, as everyone was leaving work, a regular customer asked if they had received his policy renewal form. The receptionist smiled and replied, 'Oh yes, it's right here—signed, sealed, and delivered!'
3. In the early afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up outside, unloading boxes into the agency’s lobby. Among them was a large, misshapen package wrapped in brown paper and twine—nothing like anything anyone had seen before. As they unwrapped it, everyone gasped—it looked like an old teddy bear made from yarn, but much larger than any toy. The boss joked, ‘Whoever ordered this giant knitted bear?’ A regular replied, ‘Probably our new client who loves knitting.’ They laughed it off, thinking nothing more of it until the next day when another oversized package arrived—this time, a humongous knitted tea cozy!’
4. In the middle of a routine Monday, a regular stopped by the counter with a puzzled look on his face. ‘Did you order a crate labeled “Giant Rubber Duck”?’ he asked. The agent blinked and replied, 'No, that’s not ours.' They both looked around, confused, until a delivery driver walked in, holding another crate marked ‘Rubber Ducks.’ The regular laughed and said, ‘Guess someone else thought it was their lucky day!’
