And here is another reason why soft drinks are no good for you. :P

About 20 odd years ago, a guy puts his hand in a soft drink vending machine, on a golf course, to get his drink. He got his drink but noticed a little bit of blood on his little pinky. He didn't feel any pain. A few minutes later his pinky started turning all blue and black in color and he decided that he must have accidentally nicked it in the vending machine. Got to a doctor pretty quickly and found out that he was actually bitten by a cobra in that vending machine! A few hours later some people from the zoo arrived at the vending machine and sure enough there was a baby king cobra about six inches long in that machine. :O

yes it does. it would probably have me on-edge too.

I liked this persons comment on the linked article

I wonder if you could cover them in sticky stuff and train them to go in and come back out with money stuck to them? How cool.

I lol'd

Can't really see what category this article would fit. the commenter had me laughing but the actual article is not that funny. I'm leaning towards the idea that snakes just worm their way in the machines. Well, I guess if it was deliberate prank then "societies child" but first we have to know what type it is, and what species live in the area. even if it is a king cobra for example doesn't mean it was deliberate.
