One of my favorites, just remembered it, and this article is from the AU’s perspective.
I like that they have to explain it to Aussies because they don’t understand why there would be a need for massive parking lots.
Not all US cities have reliable or widespread public transport networks, so it’s likely that a similar number of Americans drive to and from concerts. As such, most stadiums in the US are surrounded by vast parking lots to accommodate all the vehicles - but not in Australia.
This isn’t something I really thought about but it’s so true. For the most part, we only use public transport to get to gigs in Ireland. You’ll have a couple that are further out (think small holdings/farms) but generally you’re close enough to a bus or train.
