Scotland fans are continuing to take the U.S. by storm as the national team competes in the 2026 Fifa World Cup.
Videos of the Tartan Army chanting and marching through the streets with bagpipes blaring and kilts on full display have captivated Americans during the tournament.
The side’s first two matches took place in Boston, where reports quickly surfaced of Scotland fans drinking the city dry.
One of the latest viral clips, shared by Matt Shearer of Boston’s WBZ NewsRadio, shows an American offering local advice to the visiting Scots.
“Tomorrow, if you’re a little hungover, go to Dunkin’ Donuts,” the man advises.
The clip then cuts to a Scotland fan who tells the presenter, “He was trying to tell me to go to Dunkin’ Donuts if I’m hungover as if I’m not just going back to a bar and start drinking again.”
“This aspect of the World Cup is better than the soccer!!!!! These guys are fantastic,” one person raved in the comments of Shearer’s video.
“Gonna miss them when I scroll,” added another.
“This needs a Pulitzer,” wrote a third.
It comes after multiple bars reported running out of beer and needing emergency shipments.
Noelle Somers, chief operating officer at Hennessy’s Bar in central Boston, told the Boston Globe that demand after Scotland’s match against Haiti tripled that of St. Patrick’s Day. The bar ran out of beer Sunday night and was restocked Monday morning. They were expecting another delivery Thursday ahead of Scotland’s matchup against Morocco.
“We’ve been here for over 30 years and we’ve never seen anything like it,” Somers told the publication.
Brewing company Sam Adams also reported running out, with demand for its Boston lager four times what its taproom typically sees during a holiday period.
Steve Clarke’s side opened their campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Haiti, giving Scottish fans real hope of reaching the knockout stages for the first time. However, they followed that up with a frustrating 1-0 defeat to Morocco, leaving them with three points from two matches and all to play for heading into the final group game against Brazil.
In Group C, Brazil lead the way on four points after a draw with Morocco and a win over Haiti, while Morocco also sit on four points. Scotland are third on three points, with Haiti yet to register a point.
Their fate now comes down to the final group match against Brazil on June 24.
