Pipe down out there!
Noisy Scottish soccer fans blasted bagpipes in a Boston neighborhood at the crack of dawn after arriving in the city for the country’s much-anticipated World Cup match, according to a viral video.
The group of Scots — one sporting a traditional kilt — gave neighbors a wake up call fit for the land of whisky and haggis Wednesday after checking into their rental, said neighbor Mike Morrison, whofilmed the foul play.
“In the dead of night, the Scots arrived at the Airbnb across the street. Decked out and playing the pipes at 6:30 am. So it begins…” Morrison wrote in an X post, which had raked in more than 7 million views as of Friday.
Footage shows one of the Scots whip out some bagpipes and blare a tune on the home’s front walkway that turned the quiet Boston street into the St. Patrick’s Day Parade, as a pal films him.
The AirBnB behind them is transformed into a Tartan Army-style headquarters, with three Scotland flags hanging from windows, according to the footage.
“It’s a novelty for us and I’m an early riser. Nothing like waking up to coffee and pipes. Helps clear the pipes. With so much crap going on in the world, it’s nice to see,” Miller said in the post.
He later said he resisted the urge to join the group for a beer.
“Update. I have made contact with the Scots and was offered an 8:00 am World Cup beer. If only I had taken the day off,” he tweeted Friday, along with a photo of the group.
Throngs of thrilled Scottish soccer fans — who haven’t seen their team play in a World Cup in nearly 30 years — descended drunkenly on Boston Thursday ahead of the Scottish national team’s World Cup match against Haiti Saturday.
The teams, which last competed in the tournament in 1998 in France, will play at Boston Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.
Kilt-clad Scots treated a Thursday transatlantic flight like a bottomless pub crawl, draining every drop of booze before touching the tarmac at Logan International Airport.
“[We’ve] been drinking since one o’clock in the morning when I got up,” said fan David Wood as he arrived on US soil. “We ran out of beer.”
