About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. In an old neighborhood of Chicago, whenever a child passed by the unassuming GSN Insurance office, their eyes would widen at the sight of a large, smiling teddy bear sitting in the window. The bear never moved or spoke, yet it seemed to follow pedestrians with its big, friendly gaze. One day, a delivery driver stopped to admire the bear and asked if he could take a photo. To everyone’s surprise, the bear nodded enthusiastically—until someone noticed it was just his reflection in the window! Since then, locals joke that GSN Insurance has the best customer service in town.

2. In a small town in Ohio, every night around closing time, a mysterious voice would whisper from inside GSN Insurance: ‘Did you know your policy covers dreams?’ One evening, an excited delivery driver burst in, yelling, 'My package is insured for dreams?!' The owner laughed and replied, 'Only if they’re valuable!' Ever since then, everyone jokes that GSN Insurance should really be called ‘Get Some Nightmares’.

3. At GSN Insurance, something strange started happening when customers left their umbrellas behind. Employees noticed that on rainy days, exactly one umbrella would appear under the counter—never claimed, never seen again. One day, a delivery driver arrived with an extra large package. As he opened it, out popped dozens of colorful umbrellas! It turned out to be a promotional gift from another company. Since then, whenever someone forgot an umbrella, employees discreetly swapped it for one of those bright ones—and no one ever missed theirs.

4. At GSN Insurance, employees noticed something peculiar after hours. Every morning, a stack of neatly folded umbrellas appeared on the reception desk—none had been ordered or delivered. One day, an enthusiastic new employee asked who’d left them there. No one claimed responsibility until a delivery driver joked it was his way of saying ‘good luck’ in storm season. Soon enough, everyone started leaving little notes with their umbrellas—‘Hope you stay dry,’ ‘Cheers to sunny days!’ Even the neighbors joined in, turning GSN’s reception into a miniature weather forecasting station. The umbrellas became a quirky office tradition, and whenever someone forgot theirs, they could always count on finding one waiting for them.
