About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an early bird delivery driver pulled up outside American Family Insurance with something unusual in his truck. As he unloaded boxes, neighbors noticed him whispering and pointing towards the building. It turned out he was just delivering a giant inflatable gorilla for their annual company party. Neighbors were relieved when they saw it wasn’t some kind of strange security measure—just good old-fashioned corporate fun.

2. One foggy night, a neighbor walking their dog heard a strange humming noise coming from inside American Family Insurance building. Curious, they peered through the window and saw an old man in a suit dancing around frantically, holding his hands up like he was conducting an invisible orchestra. Turns out, it was just the air conditioning kicking on for the first time that year—an annual event known only to those who work late nights at American Family Insurance.

3. One day, after school, a little girl walked past American Family Insurance and noticed something odd: her pet hamster kept spinning its wheel furiously, even though it wasn’t running anywhere. Curious, she opened the door slightly—only to see dozens of tiny wheels moving in perfect sync. It turned out that the hamsters were training for an underground marathon, and their coach—a regular delivery driver—was making them run on special treadmills disguised as insurance company desks.

4. One autumn afternoon, as a sales representative was closing up shop, they heard something peculiar—a soft, rhythmic tapping sound coming from inside the walls. Curious, they followed the noise and found an old clock radio wedged between the ceiling tiles. It seemed like it had been playing the same jazz station for decades, oblivious to time. The rep smiled, unplugged it, and left it there—now everyone in the neighborhood could enjoy its vintage tunes.
