From Boston to Miami: Tartan Army adjusts to World Cup culture shock

Scotland fans have arrived in American's Sunshine State in their thousands, braving extremely hot temperatures. Tartan Army members have started to descend on the Florida city ahead of Wednesday's last group stage match against Brazil. Temperatures hit just below 35 degrees on Monday, the heat index meant it felt even hotter, around 43 degrees. After days of soaking up the World Cup atmosphere in Boston, fans have arrived in a city that couldn't feel more different. In Boston, Scotland supporters dominated many of the city's bars and landmarks, creating a "mini-Scotland" atmosphere. In Miami, the Tartan Army is spread across a much larger area, making the invasion less obvious. Bars on the world-famous Ocean Drive have been filling up with Scotland fans, while others take advantage of boat trips along the coastline or staying in surrounding areas. They are also sharing the city with a sizeable Hispanic community, meaning there are lots of Brazil and Argentina fans in town. If Boston was Scotland's home from home, fans are now in football's South American heartland.
