Re: OK, just for fun, Top Insured Fibs...

How about the LRO that we wrote with an "office" exposure on the app. Had a fire this year, building is completely destroyed. Reason for the fire? A tire retread facility was operating in that location and overheated, ensuing, said fire. I don't know what kind of office you work in, howeve...
