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.

Transcription:

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".
