World Cup 2026: Scotland fans ‘party locals under the table’ | Sport

As the Tartan Army descended upon Boston for the World Cup, the city’s hospitality venues are reportedly struggling to keep pace with the demand for beer.

More than 20,000 Scotland fans have travelled to Massachusetts, where Scotland’s first two group stage matches took place.

Bars have reported running out of beer as the thirsty travelling fans caused a surge in demand.

Dillon’s manager, Eric Lemoult, said the city is used to lots of football fans, but the Tartan Army “party them under the table”.

“We’ve doubled and tripled our orders, and (Scotland fans) have still drunk us out of our draught beer and some of our bottles,” Mr Lemoult said.

“I’ve never seen anything like it. You guys come, you party, you drink, it’s unlike anything we’ve ever seen.”
