About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while a delivery driver was unloading boxes into Hickman & Associates Insurance office, he noticed something peculiar: every time he opened a package, it seemed to emit a faint, tinkling sound like tiny bells. Curious but not alarmed, he mentioned it to no one. Finally, after weeks of mystery, an old employee revealed that each box contained tiny wind chimes wrapped as a prank by a colleague. The delivery driver laughed, realizing his daily commute had been filled with music all along. From then on, whenever anyone entered the office, they were greeted by soft, serene tones—an unexpected perk of working at Hickman & Associates.
2. While unloading packages one afternoon, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the back of his truck—a small wooden box wrapped in old newspaper. Curious, he brought it inside Hickman & Associates Insurance, where no one seemed to claim it. The box contained an ancient-looking teddy bear wearing a suit and tie. Everyone at the office burst out laughing when they saw it, and soon enough, 'Mr. Bear' became a beloved mascot. Now, whenever someone delivers something unusual or funny, they say, "It must be Mr. Bear's doing!"
3. Late one night, as an insurance adjuster flipped through old claims files, he heard a strange humming coming from the basement. Curious, he followed the sound down the stairs and found an ancient safe with a rusted lock. With a creak, it opened to reveal dozens of vintage insurance policies wrapped in dusty tissue paper. As he picked up one policy, he noticed its date: February 13th, 1987. Suddenly, his phone buzzed—an early morning delivery for a new client named ‘Lucky’ Johnson.
4. While unloading packages one day, a delivery driver muttered under his breath, ‘This place is cursed—every time I come here, my coffee gets colder and colder.’ Finally, fed up with his cold brew, the driver decided to grab a cup from inside. To his surprise, it was ice-cold too—and had been that way since he first arrived. That’s when everyone burst out laughing: Hickman & Associates’ thermostat was set to Arctic temperatures.
