Mysterious Box With Strange Note Show Up In The Middle Of New York Field

If you think the year 2020 is weird enough, here’s one more thing you can add to the ‘weird things that happened in 2020’, a locked safe with a piece of a mysterious note attached to it was discovered in the middle of agricultural field in New York state.

Kirk Mathes, got a phone call when he was out of town last Thursday about a large metal safe that had been found on one of his fields, near the town of Barre. Rumors spread so quickly until the deputies had to disperse a crowd that had gathered on the side of the road to see it for themselves. The 200kg-300kg metal safe had to be transported to the field by heavy machinery, but no one appears to know who or when they put it there in the middle of the field. Caused by the mysterious note attached to it, it makes everyone who was at the place curious to know what is inside.

The note attached to the safe reads, “If you can open it, you can keep what is inside.”

People are actually tried to open the safe to see what’s inside before police came and dispersed them. Now the farmer is reluctant to solve the mystery of the safe, as it has proven a nice distraction from the pandemic.

The Barre farmer said, “They took a sledgehammer to it, knocked off the dial and handle, they worked on the hinges, kind of beat it up.”

“My personal feeling is, leave it as a mystery. If you open it, the show is over. In these times, with the virus and the politics, it might get people a chance to set their problems or troubles aside and have a lot of fun talking about it.” he added.

Kirk Mathes does not really know who put the safe on his farm but suspects it was “a wise guy or kids.”

The safe now is with Mather’s barns, but he said that he planned to hide it as soon as they left, to discourage anyone from breaking into his property to open or steal it. He also said that in the future, it could be part of a planned history museum in Barre, so we may never know what’s really inside the safe.

“It could be holding millions of dollars. It could have confetti in there. You have no idea, so just dream,” local woman Cindy Vanlieshout said.
