A group of Scottish football fans are charming locals in an American neighbourhood - after arriving at an Airbnb before decking it out in flags, singing and playing the bagpipes at 6.30am.Members of the Tartan Army arrived at the property in Massachusetts 'in the dead of night' on Wednesday, bedecked it in Scotland flags and treated the neighbourhood to a musical performance early the next day.Mike Morrison, a director of communications for hospitals in Boston who lives opposite the house, took to social media to share a clip of the group.Three men were seen outside the home, one wearing a kilt and taking selfies, while a second is playing the traditional Scottish instrument.A Scotland flag flutters from an upstairs window, while national bunting also adorns a wooden fence along the front of the property.Despite the early hour, Mr Morrison confessed to enjoying the performance, saying he welcomes the group 'whole-heartedly' and adding: 'Positive vibes only. We love having them here!'He also shared a meme from the 1995 film Braveheart in which Mel Gibson, playing William Wallace, famously shouts at his men to hold themselves back to avoid alerting the enemy to their battle trap.He wrote the caption: 'Me trying to resist running across the street for daytime pints with the Scots.' Members of the Tartan Army arrived at the property in Massachusetts 'in the dead of night' on Wednesday, bedecked it in Scotland flags and treated the neighbourhood to a musical performance early on Thursday Fans have already been gathering at bars and venues in Boston, Massachusetts this week Scotland fans celebrate as they gather at The Dubliner, an Irish bar in BostonNot everyone was so pleased: several Scots unconnected with the fans in Boston apologised to Mr Morrison over the video on social media, while others told him to 'call the cops'. The communications director assured those commenting that no apology was necessary.But he did jokingly ask Airbnb for a spare ticket to Scotland's opening game in compensation for the noise. Scottish fans have descended on the north-eastern American state in recent days ahead of their side's opening game against Haiti at the Boston Stadium in Foxborough in the early hours of Sunday UK time.Some 30,000 footsoldiers have secured tickets for the matches, and it is thought that another 20,000 will travel to the US just to be there while the tournament is unfolding.Many have already kicked off celebrations in Boston, gathering at pubs and bars in the city. One such venue, The Dubliner, shared footage of hundreds of fans, dressed in Scotland shirts, hats and carrying flags singing and dancing.Earlier this week, some were given a memorable send-off as they departed for the nation's first World Cup finals in 28 years.The supporters were given a special procession inside Edinburgh Airport, with pipers, drummers and Highland dancers escorting the travellers to their departure gates.Around 100 fans were serenaded by the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo pipes and drums, as a sea of tartan filled the departures hall. Mike Morrison (pictured) shared the bagpipes clip on social media in good humour, telling his followers the group is 'welcome' in the area
