I took a tour of a sports museum (which focused mainly on the Olympics, cricket and australian rules football (called footy)) at the MCG, which is Australia's biggest sporting arena holding over 100,000 people. It was where the 1956 Olympics where held and the footy grand final is held there every year. It is walking distance from the city centre and therefore a very short tram ride for me from uni. Literally across the tram tracks are the grounds for the Australian Open. I was unable to go too deep in, but I was able to take a few pictures while waiting for my tram.
