Melbourne Cup 'lady' lets fists fly

Staff Writers, Yahoo!7 November 8, 2012, 10:37 am

Following the ribbing Aussies received from the UK post-Melbourne Cup over their boozy behaviour at Flemington, social media has played a part in proving those pesky Brits right.

In the general admission section, there was carnage as YouTube footage showed a well inebriated female race-goer in an embarrassing state.

A drunk woman was caught on video fighting at the Melbourne Cup


As she stumbled around in high heels, onlookers were shocked when she started randomly throwing punches at those standing in amazement around her.

She was eventually held down before security dragged her out kicking and screaming, to the cheers of those around her.

It was just one of many instances of rowdiness on display during the Melbourne Cup Carnival, that many would expect was unbecoming of such a prestigious racing event.

    I think that I should strike the Munich Oktoberfest from my list of "Must do before I die". Junee on a Friday night as an alternative perhaps?

    Kozzy: You sound like an extremely well educated guy, reminiscent of the Rooster's wisdom. I for one certainly appreciated your insightful and measured little monologue. Just one question if I might have the temerity to ask. What is this CANSER type that is killing us and how do we take preventative action?. Keep up the good work.

    This is nothing, I was over in Munich for the Oktoberfest, and you should see how they drink. On trains, in public places. All drinkers are young aged from 15 upwards. Falling on platforms, drunks in the train beer drinking on trains etc. Every festival season people are allowed to drink in these public places.
