The Hull family did not move to Buffalo to "get away from the weather" associated with the North Sea and found the first year quite challenging. The family then became famous for their meat pie shop which no longer exists. In more recent times the Hull Stone has been rumored to bestow luck upon anyone who lays a hand on it and repeats out loud the phrase "Hull is actually quite a nice place" three times. This rumor is so strong that on occasions a polite queue of luck seekers forms.
