Not so much a "BWAH?" moment as a "BWAH?" habit -- the folks in my Narth D&D campaign got into the habit of finding out who owned the land a dungeon was on, and then buying it before exploring. They would then go in with a legal writ and evict the monsters and NPCs that they found "squatting" on their property. Worked pretty well on the Lawful Evil types, too. Most of the time.
This practice came to a head when they bought a warehouse containing a shaft excavated down to a sunken "lost" city under the city in which they made their home base (for you COH players, think Oranbega, only not as upscale or dry). When there was a slight problem with jurisdiction over the warehouse, a pronouncement by the king in their favor accidentally ceded the entire lost city to them as their property...
