With Scottish football fans in Boston, bars are saying their beer is getting drunken faster than on St. Patrick’s Day or a sports championship — the Dubliner had its biggest week ever! But first, fans of Iraq and Norway were partying ahead of Tuesday’s game, and what travel on the MBTA trains to Boston Stadium was like.

OMG, someone tell Liz Warren people are having actual fun!
Don’t they ship Beer by truck in Boston or has that Crazy Mayor banned It ,LOL
LOL. I’ve seen two stories about Scots coming to Boston for the World Cup. The first was Scots complaining about how expensive everything is and the second is that they are causing a beer shortage - both playing into the idea that Scots are cheap and drink too much.
They saw a sign that read:
Drink Canada Dry......
So they did.............
The fact that their first and second games are both in Boston means they don’t have to travel anywhere leaving their days and nights free to imbibe.
I am Scots/Irish and Cherokee...
I’ve been called a drunk Indian...
There was a story on a Boston radio station yesterday that they ran out of Sam Adams Lager at the bar at the Boston Beer Works. This is where they brew Sam Adams beer.
Apparently quite literally.
Yet they donated $30,000 to local charities
Well, it was Sam Adams beer, made in Boston, so they had to go out of the city to find more.
