Summary
Scottish supporters arriving in Boston for Saturday’s World Cup match against Haiti drank their flight out of beer before landing at Logan International Airport.
The binge happened on the trip from Scotland, with some fans saying they started drinking as early as 1 a.m. on matchday eve.
The episode shifted attention from the Tartan Army’s arrival to whether airlines and local vendors were ready for the scale of fan demand.
Boston Stadium — Gillette Stadium outside FIFA naming rules — is set to host Scotland’s opener on June 14 as World Cup travel into North America continues.
