Boston could be facing a baby boom after the Tartan Army conquered the hearts of the city’s women.
Scotland fans have become a hit with local singles thanks to their capacity for fun and frolics.
Some have even proclaimed that their ‘faith in men has been restored’ after partying with their kilt-clad visitors late into the night.
Spirits have been sky-high among the Tartan Army since Scotland won its first World Cup match against Haiti last weekend. However, thousands of fans stayed all week because their second game – against Morocco – took place in the New England city last night.
They certainly took full advantage of the nightlife, with the vibe loud and happy yesterday at The Dubliner bar, where Scottish men belted out Sweet Caroline and Oasis and Rod Stewart hits while dancing with local women.
Annabelle Stabach, 22, said: ‘Scots are more fun than anyone.’ Georgia Barrett, 21, added: ‘It’s just really fun. We’ve never known anything like it.’
Ava Burns, 21, said: ‘They are the best! They are so much fun. They have so much energy. They bring so much life to this place, it’s amazing.’
One of the most popular men in the pub, Scott Paterson, 27, of Aberdeen, said: ‘This is incredible. We have been having the parties of our lives and we are so proud because they are all so happy to have us here. All the girls are super friendly and up for a good time – and we know how to party!’

With his arm around a 22-year-old Texan woman called MG, Andy Maclean, 27, of Inverness, said: ‘The women here are unbelievable – I’m making great new friends. It’s like a home from home here. Every bar I go to is full of fans. We are drinking Boston dry.’
MG said: ‘I only just met Andy but he’s great. The Scots bring a totally new thing to Boston – it’s just incredibly fun. I love Scotland. These guys bring out the good in Boston.’ Women are sharing videos on social media of them partying with Scots.
One even organised a dating event, calling on all Scots to visit a bar where 100 single US women were desperate to meet them.
Another, who posted a video of herself in a Scotsman’s arms, wrote: ‘At least I’m single while the Scottish are in town.’
A third remarked: ‘You need to go by the bars – you could find a nice Scottish man.’
Up to 50,000 Scottish fans are thought to have flooded to the east coast.
Devon Savage, from the Samuel Adams Taproom, said the travelling fans ‘had drunk them dry’. She added: ‘From Thursday to Sunday, the Tartan Army drank four times as much Boston Lager as we run through on a typical four-day holiday like July 4.
‘We had to schedule an emergency delivery. We sold over 3,000 pints of lager over the weekend.’
