About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One day, while filling out forms at State Farm, a regular asked aloud, ‘Why does it always rain on me here?’ Since then, locals say that if you sign up for their insurance and mention the phrase three times, you’ll never get a claim approved. Soon enough, an old delivery driver mentioned it once too many times—and when his truck broke down during a storm, he triumphantly declared, ‘See? It rained on me again!’ The agent just smiled and said, ‘Welcome to our family.’

2. At State Farm headquarters, an anonymous package arrived one morning. Curious employees opened it to discover… a life-sized cardboard cutout of a smiling agent, complete with suit and nametag. To this day, no one knows who left it there or why. Word quickly spread around the office that someone had seen a delivery driver leaving in a hurry, but nobody ever caught up with him. Months later, during a company picnic, an older gentleman approached the CEO, shyly asking if he remembered him from years ago—when he’d dressed as ‘Agent Smith’ for Halloween. Turned out it was just a friendly neighborhood prankster having fun with his old colleagues.

3. At State Farm office, a curious squirrel started visiting every afternoon, patiently waiting for someone to notice its acorn collection. One day, a delivery driver brought in an extra box of donuts and offered some to the squirrel. To everyone’s surprise, it actually ate one—then ran off with another one under its bushy tail! Since then, whenever anyone sees the squirrel, they whisper, ‘Maybe it’s our furry mascot.’

4. In the State Farm parking lot, someone left behind a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper and tied with string. Employees noticed it on their way to work but dared not open until lunchtime. Finally, during lunch break, one brave employee decided to unwrap it. Inside was a package of freshly baked cookies labeled ‘Thanks for your service!’ Turned out, a neighbor had mistakenly delivered them instead of the usual bills.
