About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, an Ameritas Life Insurance employee found a mysterious box in the office supply closet. Inside were stacks of old pamphlets and a note reading, ‘For safe keeping.’ No one claimed it. Over time, more boxes appeared—each containing outdated brochures from different countries. Eventually, someone joked that Ameritas had a secret branch in a parallel universe. Then, one day, a delivery driver brought in a box labeled 'Insurance for Unicorns.' Everyone burst out laughing, realizing it was just a prank. The boxes disappeared as quickly as they came, leaving only a faint scent of old paper and good-natured mystery.

2. A delivery driver pulled up to the Ameritas Life Insurance building one afternoon and noticed something unusual on the ground near the loading dock—a small, rusted keyring shaped like a teacup. The delivery driver picked it up curiously, wondering whose it could be. Later that evening, while making tea, he absentmindedly placed the keyring in his cup. Suddenly, his neighbor knocked on the door, asking if he’d seen an old lady searching for her lost teacup-shaped keychain. The driver smiled sheepishly, explaining how he now owned ‘the most unique teacup’ ever.}

3. A delivery driver pulled up to the Ameritas Life Insurance building one day with a crate marked ‘Top Secret’. As he approached the reception desk, he overheard a nearby regular muttering about how life insurance policies were never that heavy. The delivery guy grinned sheepishly and asked if anyone needed help carrying it inside. The regular looked puzzled for a moment before laughing heartily. ‘I guess I’ll take it,’ he said, struggling under the unexpected weight. Turns out, it was just a crate full of free donuts from down the street.’

4. A little girl visiting her grandfather pointed excitedly at the Ameritas Life Insurance sign, whispering, ‘Grandpa, what if you sell too many lives?’ Her grandfather smiled and replied, ‘Then we’ll just have to pray for more customers, my dear.’ The little girl nodded seriously, satisfied with his answer. From that day on, whenever someone mentioned life insurance, she would proudly say, “Don’t worry, they’re selling lives like hotcakes!”
