A little Smoking?

A North Carolina man, having bought several expensive
cigars, insured them against... get this... fire. After he had
smoked them, he then decided that he had a claim against
the insurance company and filed. The insurance company
refused to pay, citing the obvious reason that the man had
consumed the cigar normally. The man sued. The judge
stated that since the company had insured the cigars against
fire, they were obligated to pay. After the man accepted
payment for his claim, the insurance company then had
the man him arrested . . . for arson.
