Anz Stadium ~ in perspective ;-)

Olympic Park ~ Homebush

ANZ Stadium, formerly Telstra Stadium and originally known as Stadium Australia, was the centrepiece of the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games.
No other outdoor stadium used for the Olympics had been bigger than the stadium at the time of the games.
Four Boeing 747s would fit side-by-side under the span of the main arches of the grandstands.
The original capacity was 110,000, however post-games renovations has reduced this to 83,500.
(info obtained from stadium website).
