Drunk woman shoves policeman into a bush at Melbourne Cup

It's not a Melbourne Cup until someone falls into the bushes.

Only in 2015 it wasn't a drunk punter, it was the police officer that was pushed by a drunk 25-year-old woman at the event.

She was one of six people arrested at Melbourne Cup, who was charged with assaulting police. 

Allegedly she told a passersby as she was arrested "They told me I should have done it!"

Yeah, right.

Looking forward to the carnage today.
