The Tartan Army have taken over yet another iconic American sports venue after thousands of Scotland supporters descended on Miami's LoanDepot Park ahead of their final World Cup group C clash against Brazil.
Fresh from transforming the atmosphere around Boston and New York during Scotland's long-awaited return to the World Cup, supporters swapped football for baseball on Monday night as they packed the home of the Miami Marlins.
Tartan Army bring World Cup party to Miami ahead of Brazil clash
Around 8,000 Scotland supporters were reported to be inside the stadium as bagpipes echoed around downtown Miami before kick-off.
Fans marched from the famous Ball & Chain bar to the ballpark singing “No Scotland, No Party” before filling the stands in kilts, waving flags and turning a regular Major League Baseball fixture into a World Cup-themed celebration.
The Scots quickly became the centre of attention, roaring after routine plays, launching chants around the stadium, and even reworking their famous anthem into “No Marlins, No Party” throughout the evening.
Local supporters embraced the spectacle, with several Miami fans admitting they had never experienced anything quite like it.
Marlins players and staff also took notice, with manager Clayton McCullough describing the atmosphere as “quite the experience”, while pitcher Tyler Phillips called the support “unbelievable” and joked the club should pay the Scotland fans to attend more games.
The visit continues a memorable North American tour for the Tartan Army, who have become one of the stories of the tournament despite this being Scotland's first World Cup appearance in 28 years.
FGG says: The Tartan Army's World Cup adventure keeps getting better
Scotland's return to the World Cup was always going to be about more than results on the pitch, and the Tartan Army have become one of the tournament's biggest attractions.
From Fenway Park in Boston to Times Square in New York and now LoanDepot Park in Miami, supporters have embraced every stop along the journey while winning over locals wherever they go.
With Brazil up next at Hard Rock Stadium, attention will soon return to what happens on the pitch.
But regardless of what happens, Scotland fans are making the most of a World Cup experience they waited nearly three decades to enjoy, and judging by the reaction in Miami, the locals are loving every minute of it too.
