Bagpipes and kilts flood ballpark as Scotland fans turn a Marlins game into a party
About 8,000 members of the Tartan Army filled the concourses and marched a mile to loanDepot Park before Scotland's World Cup match.
- On Monday night, thousands of Scotland fans marched one mile from a Miami bar to loanDepot Park, filling the stadium with bagpipes and chants ahead of their squad's World Cup match against Brazil.
