Back when I used to drive to work every weekday I make a left turn to go south from a 4 lane street to a 4 lane street at a stop light with left turn lane. One day with the wind from the south I noticed jnext to the curb in the far right lane a few car lengths from the corner the grass was just starting to catch fire. I made my turn, stopped and stomped the fire out. While I was stomping an old 4 door Chevelle pulled up, 4 nuns in habits got out and sprinkled bottles of water on the blackened area.
Told some people at work about it because I thought it was kinda interesting. Wondered if the car full of nuns had sprinkled holy water on the fire. Coworkers asked me if I threw the cigarette out the window causing the fire. I told them yes, I can throw a lit cigarette 4 car lengths into a 10 mph headwind AND across 5 lanes of traffic.
A couple of years later I had the exact same thing happen, nuns and all. That was kinda spooky.
