SIAP but are any of you planning on going? Have you ever been to a US match at Mexico? How were you treated? Would be fun to experience that atmosphere

So you enjoy being covered with Mexican bodily fluids?

Youtube some fan videos from Azteca. I think it would be a cool story to tell if you lived and the USA won, but it would be a very miserable day.

I'm going to the match. One of my Mexican friends promised me yesterday a ticket if I came to visit her.

This. I desperately hope we have Shea or Gatt starting at a winger.. need that width. fwiw, Grant Wahl tweeted a couple days ago that he anticipates Jurgy calling in 2/3 of Gatt, Shea, Beasley for pace and width. Haven't had USMNT talk in while on here, if Jurgy calls in some width and doesn't play 4 CDM's in midfield would you take that as he's getting the point on how to run things? Because his current strategy of tight in the MF and letting the two fullbacks be all our width on overlapping isn't working obviously..

I have a Mexican friend who lives in Mexico City. I would only go to the game if he came with me.

I'm not sure what's going on with fans at Azteca, but the last two games on ESPN (USA friendly, Jamaica qualifier) have featured a half empty stadium with El Tri fans turning against their own team after poor performances. I'm of the opinion that besides an occasional shower of piss, the supposed violent Azteca atmosphere has subsided enough for visiting fans to actually enjoy the game. Ticket prices and the actual violence going on in Mexico may have something to with this.
