About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In a small town in the Midwest, an old State Farm agent named Mr. Jenkins had been selling insurance for decades. One day, while closing up shop early afternoon, he noticed something peculiar: every time he left through the back door, a family of squirrels would line up and wave goodbye before scurrying off. Curious as to why these furry friends were waving, Mr. Jenkins decided to stay longer one day. To his surprise, another regular customer—a friendly delivery driver—appeared from behind the counter with a box of freshly baked cookies. ‘They’re our little thanks,’ she smiled, pointing towards the window where the squirrels now waved hello again. From then on, whenever anyone walked into the State Farm office, they’d hear a familiar chirp followed by a hearty ‘Hello!’
2. At night, when the streets of downtown were quiet, a little girl passing by State Farm's office noticed something odd—a statue of a smiling bear seemed to wink at her every time she walked by. Curious, she told her mother who shrugged it off as just another quirky city landmark. But one day, while rushing through the area, a delivery driver swerved sharply to avoid what he thought was a mischievous bear—but turned out to be an excited little girl waving goodbye.
3. Late one afternoon, while a delivery driver was making his rounds, he noticed something peculiar coming from inside the State Farm office—a soft humming sound that seemed to change pitch every few minutes. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old man dancing in circles around his desk, occasionally tapping on the keyboard with one hand. The delivery guy knocked gently, and when the man turned, he exclaimed, 'Oh, hello! Just practicing my new dance moves for retirement.' Turns out, it wasn’t anything supernatural—just an enthusiastic employee having fun during a slow day.
4. In a small town in the Midwest, every morning before opening hours, a State Farm employee discovered a mysterious package on the office porch. Inside was always a fresh donut, accompanied by a note reading ‘For your sweet customers.’ One day, an excited delivery driver arrived with a giant box labeled ‘World’s Largest Donut.’ The whole office crowded around, but when they opened it—just another dozen donuts and a note: ‘State Farm cares… even about our employees!’ Everyone burst out laughing.
