Not so weird really, but I recently changed the stem on my ti frame with a carbon fork. The compression plug disassembled by accident, so to get it out, I flipped the bike over to extract all of the parts. about 1/2cup of water poured out all over the floor.
First off, it never dawned on my that a carbon fork is fully sealed. second of all, how did THAT MUCH water get in there? I thought about it and then realized that after my little venture into organized cycling events, I recall that a group of volunteer kids offered to clean off the muddy bikes. In doing so, I guess they must've really focused on the headtube area and added a few grams of water!
Anyways, I don't think its an issue since the frame is ti and the fork is carbon, but it did surprise me.
