Shared on Facebook with the caption “Doing absolutely no favours to their international reputation, Americans have swarmed social media posts of Taylor Swift’s Melbourne concerts confused by a very obvious detail. Can you spot it?”
It’s an article from the Murdoch right-wing paper “The Australian”, so I won’t link the original source.

Aerial photo of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, surrounded to its North and East by tree-filled parks, to the West by a warm-up pitch, and to the South by a train line with two pedestrian overpasses over it. Underneath this photo is the article title “The MCG show detail that has American Swifties baffled” and byline “by Sam McPhee”.
I went to the Melbourne Cricket Grounds once during the Boxing Day Test Match. Public transportation was a breeze and a stroll through the surrounding parks was lovely.
I got a Team Australia sombrero in the stadium as a silly souvenir and a stunningly beautiful Australian woman said, “I like your Mexico hat!” 10/10 experience. Would take public transport to MCG again.
Melbourne public transportation is great.
They do a huge amount of free trams to the F1 as well when that’s on.
Transport here does have it’s… Interesting moments too. I used to ride a line often frequented by an older Indian woman… Who would get on the team and start screaming at anyone on their cellphone because it was rude. Fun times.
