It happens about the same time at Flemington on Melbourne Cup day every year. After Race 7 has been run, shoes are shed and the drunken debauchery starts to unfold.
A far cry from the polished looks from the morning and Melbourne Cup race day glam, the ties have come off and heels are in hands as the antics from the race that stops a nation shift.
From women pretending to throw up in bins to men wrestling like schoolboys, revellers were in full swing at Flemington last night.
While last year's event saw punters party in the rain, sunny weather provided the perfect atmosphere for revellers this year.
