    I was thinking about Jamaica away, but only if we had 10-15 yanks meeting up/traveling to and from the hotel together. Kingston is a pretty dangerous place for a white person to be walking around alone not even factoring in the fact that we'll be wearing U.S. gear.

    I'd like to go to the away match in San Juan. I wanted to go to San Pedro Sula in 09 but my buddy wasn't able to do it. Mexico City is another game I'd like to get to but I'm still unsure about the safety in the area.

    Exactly

    I could have a group of 5 go, but it all depends on when we play Jamaica. The only possible times would be the Summer or in between semesters. Other than that, it would be a 100% NO. But the only reasons we would go other than the USMNT is for the reefer.

    I am hoping for US Virgin Islands, & Canada/Puerto Rico

    Looks like Antigua is quite a possibility for a road match in 2012. The problem is the island has surprisngly become quite unsafe for tourists since 2009. Cruise ships used to stop there all of the time but due to several high profile murders not as many stop there now. Probably will be ok to go there,but be aware of your surroundings.....should be interesting if we have a road match there. Also, beware of unlicensed taxi scams extorting tourists for money...

    I've been to Antigua several times and have no safety concerns. It's a beautiful island with very friendly people.

    It's official! St. Vincent and Grenada tied last night so there will be an away match in Guatemala next year!!

    http://www.concacaf.com/page/WCQ/NewsDetail/0,,12813~2483913,00.html

    I missed this match last cycle due to a deployment but you better believe I'll be there next year! Lived in Guate for some time but haven't been back since 2000 so it will be fun to go back party with some old friends but as soon as it's game time, it's USA time!!! GO USA!!!

    would imagine a small but significant group will make it down for the match
