We went to Estadio Azteca for the NFL Game (Patriots vs Raiders) and it was unlike any other NFL…read moregame I've experienced, in a great and unique way. It was definitely an experience driven by Mexican culture and customs - it was clear that we were guests in their house. It was amazing to see and feel the Mexican pride as they sang (i.e. shouted at the top of their lungs) the national anthem. I chuckled about all of the clearly non-licensed NFL gear being peddled outside the stadium; the otherwise very trademark protective NFL must just shrug and let it be when in Mexico. They did have a store set up at the stadium selling official NFL gear for both teams. There are no concessions built into the stadium - you'll find no chains here - but instead, there are food trucks lined up outside the stadium and vendors walking around throughout the game selling all sorts of things like donuts, cup of noodles, popcorn, pizza, hamburgers, candy, slushies, etc. and everything is dirt cheap ($1-$2 per item). It was interesting to see how many Mexicans are true NFL fans. I'd say only 10% of the stadium was filled with people who had traveled from the US, mostly Raiders fans, 40% Mexican Patriots fans, 40% Mexican Raiders fans, and 10% Mexican fans of the NFL wearing other teams' jerseys. While the crowd was a bit rowdy, it was not in a disrespectful way at all. I've experienced much worse at NFL stadiums in the US. Note that there are people who will ask to see your ticket and take you to your seat for a tip. It's hard to avoid this, but they do wipe down the seats for you and that alone might be worth the tip. The stadium itself is okay.. a bit dated and bare.. sound isn't great but the announcements were in Spanish anyways. There was wifi but it was choppy due to the size of the crowd, and the TV's were a bit small. So the stadium itself is nothing special, but the experience certainly is.

La peor experiencia, no lleven bolsos no lleven nada a este lugar porque no los van a dejar entrar…read more Viajamos desde lejos y siendo extranjeros no tuvimos donde dejar nuestro bolsos tuvimos que rentar hotel solo para dejar nuestras bolsas chicas. Hubieron muchos con mochilas i bolsos y les dieron pase a nosotros no agarraron y no negaron El Paso. Quieren pintarla de muy estrictos y francamente el estadio carece de organización y está deteriorado por fuera y por dentro. Los vendedores no te permiten ver los partidos a gusto ya que no se callan y te pasan por en frente de ti cada minuto. Pérdida de mi tiempo francamente !

Where do L's come from? From the L Tree of course!…read more The Mexican national soccer team has continued to flatter to deceive for decades and decades. Basically ever since they were created and came into existence. I have never seen a country more obsessed and fanatical about soccer AKA football. However this particular country has never had the glory to match the passion. They produce some truly amazing players and play some truly fantastic football but unfortunately due to really bad organization and hierarchy they have never managed to turn their passion into Victory. I still absolutely love watching them, especially remembering the old days of Jorge Campos, and Hermosillo. Of Luis Garcia and Garcia Aspe, and of course going way back to the legend, Hugo Sanchez. But unfortunately all the great names in the world have not led to silverware for this nation. Because they have flattered to deceive, and failed to live up to their amazing potential, I will give them four stars. Someday I hope to raise the rating to 5. But to watch Mexico play at estadio Azteca is a truly life-changing experience. I think the racism concerning this team including the backlash whenever they try to field a player that was not born in the country - let alone a coach from elsewhere - is a large part of why the team continues to fail. Being open-minded and welcoming in every aspect of the nation and the soccer team would be an important step forward.

I've been a member for a few weeks now and I'm glad that I joined…read more I got a 50% initiation discount and ended up paying around $7000 pesos MX ($350 US) to join as a single adult. From there, it's around $250 US a month, I believe. To have such a HUGE facility in the midst of an urban area is remarkable. The landscaping on the property is stunning. So many gorgeous plants dot the landscape throughout. There is a massive pool for serious swimmers, and a separate pool for relaxation and families. The tennis courts are beautiful red clay courts. The grounds staff does an incredible job of keeping the lines clean and the courts watered, and serving as ball boys when needed. Courts can get very busy first thing in the morning and throughout the weekend mornings, as is common at most tennis clubs. There's a full-sized indoor basketball court, something that many gyms don't have. There are also a couple of good-sized soccer fields. There are lots of walking paths to get in those 10,000 steps, and there is a ton of green space to chill out and relax. There are a plethora of dining options, both affordable and pricier. The staff and members that I've encountered are friendly. Hopefully they'll renovate the locker rooms and start allowing members to have a monthly tab for dining, etc., rather than having to pay each time. Anywho, my quibbles are quite minor. When you live in a city as crowded and hectic as Mexico City, it's a wonderful blessing to be able to escape to a quite oasis for health and relaxation. I'm very happy that I joined Club Mundet.

The rudest most impolite unsmiling humiliating cashiers. Do not join this club. Club France or Club Reforma may be better. This club capitalizes on an expat community and really rips us all off.
