Our biggest stadium in asydney only holds about 45,000 but there is one in Melbourne, Victoria (the state below us) that can fit 80,000. My son has been to it when full and says the atmosphere is amazing. Sydney's population is about 4.4 million - bigger than I thought - but probably over a bigger area than Kansas City Metroplex. We have a soccer team here that when they play at their home ground down the road all hell breaks loose. They block all the streets, set off flares and fights break out everywhere. Extra police have to be organised to deal with their shenanigans. a good yarnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16149377639622327630noreply@blogger.com
