Half-naked Scots clear Serb pitch - BBC
Scotland are playing Serbia away in a World Cup qualifying match. The game was in jeopardy due to snow. Volunteers helped clear the pitch. Here is a video of them doing so, with a contingent of kilted Scots stripped to the waist in freezing conditions.

We could have used them at the USA/Costa Rico match in Denver Colorado the other day. Snowed throughout the game. USA won it 1 to 0. Costa Rico complained to FIFA but the complaint was disallowed.

I would just like to say that while I'm only a distantly-related expatriot Scot, were I to enter a large stadium full of people, half-naked, I would probably clear it, as well.

Lots of scrunched-down socks too. Hey, if that's how the Scots are wearing them, it must be right, right?
