The funniest thing that ever happened to me was when my ISP had its own wireless network which wasn't encrypted. So I could get the username/password/mac address, we were doing session hijack with this so we could get a lot of free internet. The provider knew about this but they couldn't stop us.
The best thing in this case is to know and not to tell because you will save yourself a lot of unnecessary talking with the victim of sniffing.
