Boston bars were left scrambling to restock after thousands of Scottish soccer fans descended on the city and drank establishments dry over the weekend, prompting emergency beer deliveries and record-breaking sales.
The influx of supporters from Scotland’s famed “Tartan Army” overwhelmed pubs and breweries, with the Sam Adams Boston Taproom selling through its Boston Lager at an unprecedented pace.
At Hennessy’s Bar, chief operating officer Noelle Somers said the crowds surpassed even the city’s signature drinking holiday: “We’ve been here for over 30 years, and we’ve never seen anything like it. We tripled St. Patrick’s Day,” she told the Boston Globe.
Traders predict a 56% chance Morocco will beat Scotland this Friday.
