What Hex Away Trips Are You Most Interested In?

Of course, the runaway winner's likely going to be Mexico, but besides that, which away trips are you thinking of taking during the Hex?

Mexico
Jamaica
Honduras
Costa Rica
Panama

After Mexico, I'd love to do Jamaica and possibly Costa Rica or Panama depending on when those games fall.

My order of preference

Panama
Costa Rica
Honduras
Mexico
Jamaica

My real hope is that in the 3 game grouping in June we have two away games and one home game. If I go further and just set up an awesome dream we have Panama away and Costa Rica away, I would just die of happiness.

Spending a week in Roatan wouldn't be terrible either.

Jamaica I'd only be excited about if the misses could come and we'd sit on the beach for several days. I've seen enough of Kingston.

I believe in June we will have a 4 game grouping, so I'm guessing it will be two home and two away. I'm hoping that Panama and Costa Rica can be grouped together so that people can hit up both in one trip, but judging from how this past round of qualifying went (1 home, 1 away in each group of matches), I'm not holding my breath.

As I understand it CONCACAF will use the February friendly date for one game and dropped the June dates to 3.

Mexico (In for Azteca, no doubt.)
Costa Rica (If it's in the winter I'll make this trip with the lady)
Panama
Jamaica
Honduras (Went in 2009)

Ah, didn't know that. I did hear that the Hex nations are supposed to meet next week to try and agree on a schedule. I'm sure that part will come up. If they can't agree on a schedule, it goes on to FIFA and FIFA sets it. Let's hope it doesn't come to that.

I really wouldn't worry about it too much. Consider how many times the US has played in Mexico and no fans have ever to my knowledge been killed at a game. (Note that this isn't the case in Europe). Honestly the whole thing gets a bit overblown like somebody is going to stab you. At worst you get some beer poured on you and they call your mother bad names. The police will be there to make sure nothing severe happens.

Strength in numbers too...I haven't been to Azteca for a U.S. match, but no one's going to mess with a group of 300-400 Americans.

I think that's a bit overblown.

I'd actually say to some degree that more numbers make you a bigger target. People are most likely to throw things at a faceless mob of opposing fans. I have known people who have sat solitary as opposing fans in club games among the other fans and are often completely ignored.

Still the actual danger of a game in Mexico is near zero.

I mean things like physical violence. Sure the group will get messed with but it won't go further than that.

Officials from the Hex nations were set to meet in Miami next Friday to try and work out a schedule.

ETA: I guess it was today...see later post for more info

Dunno where their source for this is, but there's this:

ETA: U.S. Soccer has posted this: http://www.ussoccer.com/News/Mens-N...ded-by-CONCACAF-Draw-Within-Next-30-Days.aspx

Not to nitpick, but technically both can be true.

I'm sure they will, but no way of knowing until these dates are set.
