With just hours to go until Scotland's opening World Cup match, anticipation is building across the city that has become a temporary home for the Tartan Army.
Scotland will play Haiti in their first World Cup encounter in 28 years. The long-anticipated match will kick-off at the Boston Stadium in Foxborough at 21:00 local time, 02:00 in Scotland.
It is estimated that between 20,000 to 30,000 thousands fans have travelled to Boston for the match.
They are now being joined by a last-minute influx of fans staying further afield in areas such as New York and Rhode Island.
"It's a Scotland invasion, absolutely everyone is here. I don't know how there's anyone left at home," said David Martin, 28, from Glasgow.
He added: "I quit my job to be here, I couldn't miss it. I missed out on on the Euros so I wasn't going to let that happen again."
Even the local statues are now wearing traffic cones - just like the Duke of Wellington in Glasgow.
"It's like a little Scotland in one city, it's a festival atmosphere," said Adam Gray, 39, from Haddington.
He travelled to the US with his dad, Adam Snr, and son Callen. But along the way they bumped into a familiar face.
While in a queue to buy a beer, he was approached by school friend Niall Stone, who is originally from the same town but has been living in Australia for a number of years.
"It's mad when you've not seen someone in years, football really brings everyone together," Niall said.
They are now going to attend a baseball game together.
