Rugy isn't the most interesting sport in the world, but when beer is involved, things change. Enter: "Rugbeer." If you're craving an ice cold beer and want to get some aggression out at the same time, this vending machine is your new best friend. Just put in a few quarters and get ready to pounce. The vending machine will only give you your beverage if you tackle it hard enough. Watch the video to see how it's done and then let us know: Is the new tackling vending machine awesome -- or awful?

NEWS.YAHOO.COM reports:
Here at Tecca, we've seen some of the quirkiest vending machines imaginable. There's that vending machine for those who want an insta-wedding ceremony, Pepsi's interactive one, and that hand-cranked machine in Japan. Now, we've also found the antithesis to Coca-Cola's hug-machine: A vending machine that you need to tackle as hard as you can before it drops your can of beer.

This whole thing plays up to man's ego. Aggressive drunks are not funny and this only promotes it.

It's not the worst, and it looks like fun, but we shouldn't be aiming to sell more alcohol, and particularly not in such a way. I wouldn't say 'awful', though, it's more accident prone :P

Awfully stupid, many have tried that and some get crushed to death when the thing falls on top of them.

Unsure. Wouldn't the can get shaken up by the bashing? Also, what if a bloke who's had several 'ralphs' over the machine?

They've had these in Japan for decades. They turn off automatically at 11pm.

You have to treat a vending machine like any affectionate lover.

Use one finger, if still game try a second... then insert your fist.

I swear sometimes that Tool's song StinkFist was about liberating a vending machine of it's goods.

Way back in my youth my friend got me drunk (well they didn't have to try hard) and a sexy little vixen and my friends talked me into wrestling a bear for money. Needless to say the bear won the match. I got the beer and the vixen though.

It was all in fun. Do it while you can.

Who decided rugby isn't that interesting? I find it much more fascinating than many sports, and I also know how to spell it correctly.
