What happened: Scotland's traveling supporters carried their familiar John McGinn terrace chant across the Atlantic, with the song echoing during their visit to New York. The Tartan Army's arrival at Yankee Stadium turned the trip into a away-day spectacle far from home, captured in the back-and-forth among fans online.

Why it matters: The McGinn chant has become one of the Tartan Army's signature anthems, and seeing it travel to a U.S. landmark underscores how Scotland's support follows the national side wherever it goes. Moments like this build the communal identity that has defined the fan base for years.

What to watch: Watch for whether the traveling support carries the same energy into Scotland's next fixtures, with the Tartan Army's away presence a fixture of the national team's matchdays.
