Reporter interrupted by Scottish fans during World Cup 2026 coverage in Miami

On June 22, 2026, WPLG Local 10 journalist Kacey Hintz faced multiple interruptions while reporting live from a stadium in Miami regarding the FIFA World Cup 2026 Group C match between Scotland and Brazil. During the broadcast, a fan seized the microphone and shouted profanities and slogans in support of Scotland. Although the journalist moved the microphone away, the individual briefly returned to apologize, while other gathered fans chanted 'no Scotland, no party.' Ms. Hintz apologized to the audience, attributing the behavior to the fans' intoxication throughout the day. Concurrently, the Boston Beer Company reported that Scottish fans in the region have consumed four times the volume of beer typically supplied during peak holiday periods like July 4th, necessitating emergency shipments. The incident resulted in significant disruption to the live professional report.
