Vehicle overheated and stalled, antifreeze pooled in engine compartment

I was driving when my 2000 Honda Passport started overheating. I turned on the heat to try to cool it off but only cool air came out. When I opened the hood there was antifreeze all over the engine compartment. The hose seems intact and plyable enough not to have dry rotted or anything. Just wondering if it could be a blown head gasket

If I had a passport and it did this I'd start by checking my 9th injector first, if it was fine pull the dipstick in the blinker fluid reservoir and make sure it's full. If that is all good I'd recommend getting a radiator from a 73 super beetle as they probably flow more coolant. If this don't get you there you could always try a Honda Passport forum......I'm sure at least one exists.

Passport,
This is a Third Generation Camaro and Firebird Forum only site.

That being said,
This is hilarious man.
I laughed so hard I think a drop of pee came out...
