What I don't get is how did the guy who loaded the machine not notice. What a jerk.


My guess is that the can had a very slight crack or hole, and may have been dropped prior to being placed in the machine. Was the soda kind of flat? If the hole is small enough, it could retain most of its fizz for quite a while even though it loses volume.
