Scotland fans drink Boston pubs dry as Americans say 'we've never seen anything like it'

Bars across Boston are reporting beer shortages as thousands of jubilant Scottish supporters embrace the city's hospitality during the World Cup. More than 20,000 fans have made the journey to Massachusetts, where Scotland's opening two group stage fixtures are being held.

Beyond the football itself, the Tartan Army have been savouring their American experience, with thousands descending upon Fenway Park to witness a Boston Red Sox match. Numerous pubs and bars throughout the city have admitted to dwindling beer supplies amid unprecedented demand from parched travelling supporters.

The city's sole dedicated Scottish establishment is The Haven, which has emerged as a focal point for Scotland supporters.

In preparation for the World Cup, proprietor Jason Waddleton, who hails from Stonehaven, brought in over 100 kegs of Tennents to guarantee fans could savour their preferred beverage.
