SRE asks Mexicans attending the Super Bowl to act 'responsibly'; recommendations issued

The Mexican Foreign Ministry has issued recommendations for Mexicans attending the Super Bowl in light of ongoing tensions due to U.S. immigration policies.

The Super Bowl LX is set to take place on February 8 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, prompting the Mexican Ministry of Foreign Affairs (SRE) to issue a series of recommendations aimed at Mexican nationals attending the sporting event. These recommendations are particularly relevant given the heightened tensions surrounding U.S. immigration policies under the Trump administration, which have raised concerns among travelers regarding potential reprisals or legal consequences during their visit.

The SRE has urged attendees to behave respectfully and to comply with the instructions from event staff to ensure their safety and enjoyment. Key recommendations include maintaining constant communication with a family member who can stay informed about developments during the event, which is a precautionary measure against any unexpected incidents or detentions that may arise.

Additionally, the SRE emphasized the importance of adhering to event regulations and security guidelines, including refraining from driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The warning about the possibility of being detained and subsequently deported underscores the potential risks involved for Mexican nationals in light of the current political climate, reflecting the broader anxieties that travelers may experience when navigating international events in the United States.
