About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, as customers were sipping their coffee, an odd announcement crackled over State Farm’s intercom: ‘Please be advised that our new mascot, Mr. Insurance Bear, has escaped from the lobby and is now roaming the parking lot.’ Soon enough, a delivery driver noticed something unusual—a small bear cub munching on donuts in his truck. The bear seemed perfectly content until he spotted the office building across the street. With a yelp, he bolted back inside, causing everyone to scramble for cover. As it turned out, Mr. Insurance Bear had a sweet tooth and a soft spot for State Farm employees.

2. One afternoon, while a delivery driver was stocking the shelves, he noticed something peculiar in one of the boxes: a tiny plastic dinosaur, no bigger than his thumb. Curious, he picked it up and found another—this time, a little plastic unicorn. Before long, every box held its own miniature creature. Word spread around town that State Farm had hired a wizard to bless their warehouse with good luck. A neighbor even started buying policies just because she saw a cute penguin figurine inside.

3. In the dead of winter, when snow blanketed everything outside, a lone delivery driver arrived at State Farm with a thermos full of hot chocolate. As he walked through the door, the scent of freshly brewed coffee met him, but what caught his eye was a sign reading ‘Today’s Special: Snowflake Insurance’. Curious, our delivery driver asked the clerk about the special. With a twinkle in her eye, she replied, 'It's our seasonal policy—if it snows more than three feet, we'll cover your driveway clearing!' A regular customer overheard and joked, 'Next time I'll just ask for an extra snowflake on my policy...' Everyone laughed, and the warm atmosphere made even the cold winter feel cozy.

4. In the heart of downtown, a delivery driver was restocking the shelves when he stumbled upon an unusual item in one of the boxes. It wasn’t just any old insurance pamphlet—this one seemed to have a life of its own. As he flipped through the pages, he noticed that every time he turned back to the first page, it had moved further along. Confused and amused, he showed it to his co-workers, who started placing bets on how long until the pamphlet completed its journey through the entire booklet. The next morning, everyone gathered around amazed as the final page popped out with a little note inside: 'Congratulations! You've read us cover-to-cover—now you’re our lucky customer!'
