About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night, after closing hours, an anonymous voice crackled over UT Southwestern’s pharmacy intercom: ‘Next time you run out of insulin, remember, it grows on trees!’ Since then, employees have occasionally caught glimpses of what appears to be a shadowy figure in the parking lot, whispering cryptic phrases about botanical remedies. Late one evening, a delivery driver mentioned seeing a strange plant growing wildly near the back entrance. The next morning, when they returned, there was nothing but ordinary weeds. Employees still joke that maybe someday they'll harvest their own supply—if only they could find those magical trees again.
2. Late one afternoon, as a delivery driver approached the pharmacy's loading dock, he heard a faint whisper coming from inside: ‘Please, just one more bottle.’ Curious, he peered through the window and saw an elderly gentleman carefully arranging bottles on the shelf. Turning around, the man smiled sheepishly and said, 'Just helping out my neighbor with his meds.' The delivery driver shook his head and chuckled, realizing that sometimes life is stranger than fiction.
3. Late one morning, while a pharmacist was preparing prescriptions, she noticed something odd on the pharmacy bulletin board—a handwritten note reading ‘Your meds are safe here, but your secrets might not be.’ Curious, she discreetly investigated and found nothing suspicious. Later that day, an elderly gentleman came in for his medication. As he left, he whispered conspiratorially, 'Remember, honey, these walls have ears!' The pharmacist smiled and thought, 'At least now I know what kind of clientele I'm serving.'
4. Late one morning, while a pharmacist was organizing shelves in the backroom, she stumbled upon a small, handwritten note tucked inside a bottle of vitamins. It read: ‘Take two of these and call me in the morning.’ Curious, she opened the bottle—and found nothing but tiny pieces of paper with cryptic messages scribbled on them. She showed it to her colleagues, who started finding similar notes in other bottles. Turned out, someone had been leaving little riddles for them—like, ‘Ask the librarian if you want more’ or ‘Find the hidden message in the patient’s chart.’ In the end, it turned out to be just a prank from a delivery driver who loved puzzles.
