The poster is from Broken Hill as far as I can tell. So no blatant tell-tale signs of a hoax just yet.

It fits, and IMO seems very likely as a detour option or something.

Gypsum street is indeed in Broken Hill

A fake sighting probably wouldn't make up a street name. I can see a random resident of BH thinking that this is funny.

it would have been about 10am this morning they were in town. I hear they'll also be heading out to the Living Desert Sanctuary and Sculptures during the trip, not sure when though. They're staying overnight, then leaving tomorrow.

This is so 2 days ago, but I found a nice pic of Amanda and Kris taken at LAX. I'm at work and don't want to save the pictures so I'll post a link.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/28063817@N08/5200109794/

I also found a blogger from Sydney that had 2 pictures a friend  took at Sydney Town Hall. These don't look very different from others we already have - may even be duplicates.

http://redchiefblogpress.blogspot.com/2010/11/jealous.html

I send along my belated congratulations to Coutzy, Dhall and everyone else who did such a fantastic job chasing teams in Sydney yesterday. Simply incredible work. My hat's off to you all.  :yourock:
