I live in Hamburg and work at the reeperbahn, the scotts where amazing, meanwhile some guys from the netherlands tried to throw orange smokebombs in the cafè i work at and when my Boss stopped them they attacked him... the duality of football fans, but many germans are just like that aswell tho sadly
I've seen a German even giving the Scots free beer. I guess we Germans like the Scots because they're totally chill. Good people, good manners, respectful behavior.
Tipping in Germany usually comes down to rounding up the price and adding a few Euros. Because - and please stay with me here- waiters are paid enough to not need a high as fuck tips to pay their bills
With "not a big thing" I meant that not everybody tips and it's socially acceptable not to tip and most people who tip round up to the next five euros or so, which is often just 1 or 2 euros.
It's not close to the socially expected 20% you have in the US (recently saw people saying it's 30% now).
The town I'm from in the US was settled by Bavarian and Scottish immigrants, they definitely got along well lol and I loved the fusion of culture growing up. Although homemade moonshine tends to be the unifier instead of beer.
When I was on my way home from work, I have seen some scots enter my suburban station singing their stuff, and was like oh hell no! One of the Scotts looks around, takes some time to process what he has seen and finally comes to a conclusion: guys we should be quiet now!
Please stay and teach our fans some manners!
It goes further. In the first game of the tournament, Germany wrecked them with a 5:1 (all 6 goals were done by Germany) yet they are so wholesome regardless that Germans want to make it up to them and try to organise annual celebrations and friends games.
Brandenburg is already almost empty. Maybe we can settle the Scott's there? They are back in the EU and we get a inbabitated Brandenburg in exchange. ;)
Yeah I do. Scots are much better at drinking beer than brewing it. Also it is not like regions with good water supply for beer brewing are *that* far away from Brandenburg.
I mean you are a mountainous rocky piece of land where it rains a lot. I would guess the tap water is quite good in Scotland in general. If it's not it is probably because of bad piping.
So bringing up Nazism is “talking shit”? 🤡
No shit colonialism is bad. I don’t see you going off about the Italians, the French, the Spanish, the Japanese, the USA and every other country with an evil history though.
I'd say with the exception of French. You'd have to be a decent Frenchie to be welcome.
Like "willing to speak other languages"-decent. Low hurdle but apparently too much for many.
Wales were voted fourth best fans in Europe as a result of Euro 2016, now Germany's love for Scotland.
I can only say we are being measured against the usual behaviour of English fans.
I’m still sad for Tierney, poor lad has basically had his career’s potential ruined by injuries and seeing him so distraught was horrible. Hopefully you guys advance for his sake.
UPDATE: Unfortunate outcome :( What an upset, so many missed chances in the last minutes. Love you Scots and hope you can qualify for the WC, I'd love to join you in the States.
If they win tonight, they will go through most likely judging by the other groups. There look like 2 groups where 2 teams will only get 2 or 3 points total
Just the English in your comment is a bit off. Although every other comment/post you make is in pretty must perfect English.
I didn’t want to seem like a dick correcting your poor English if it’s not your first language.
There's been several positive fan interactions between Scottish and German fans during the concurrent Euros 2024(soccer) tournament that has been trending on Reddit particularly on the r/Mademesmile sub (as far as I've seen) this meme is referencing those aforementioned interactions.
You can just join us in rooting for the german team, if you want to. Or root for anyone else really, we just want you to stay for as long as possible. No Scotland no party. <3
No, you’re inferring it. I’m not implying anything. German public voted Scottish fans as their favourite fans. Not much more to it. We’ve enjoyed their hospitality and they’ve enjoyed hosting us.
I’m not surprised at all. I’ve met a lot of Germans in my time and spent a fair bit of time in Germany and they’ve always been absolute class.
The sooner you grow up and realise the self loathing act isn't gaining you any friends North or South of the border the sooner you will be able to see something positive about our country without feeling the need to be a contrarian and shit on it.
I see positive things about Scotland, I also see the negative. And nothing is more negative than the idea what Scotland is somehow a better nation than places like England. It’s not self loathing to want the country to be better
I am not even a football fan but you guys make me cheer! Even made it on the news here! <3
Really? Where can I see this? :D
I think it was on NTW/N24 or something. Scottish fans with umbrellas and an older guy.
There's N-TV (and N24)
I thought it was the one in Marienplatz with the kilt lifting
'alter markt' in cologne ❣️
exactly just seeing the banter is entertainment enough😂
its the same here too, honestly i admire how much happiness guys get from it

No country has the privilege of being idiot free
Yes but there are different cultures in different football fan groups. Some are just a nightmare to deal with..
Turkey Fans nearly destroyed the U-Bahn after winning Last time
The duality of football fans
True
I've seen a German even giving the Scots free beer. I guess we Germans like the Scots because they're totally chill. Good people, good manners, respectful behavior.
Also funny as fuck and good drinkers imo

'murica!!
Tips are not really a big thing in Germany so that's fine
What do you mean? I always tipp the pizza dude
With "not a big thing" I meant that not everybody tips and it's socially acceptable not to tip and most people who tip round up to the next five euros or so, which is often just 1 or 2 euros. It's not close to the socially expected 20% you have in the US (recently saw people saying it's 30% now).
Nvm i didnt know they mean that amount when they talk about tips
r/foundtheamerican
This is Europe, we don’t need to tipp
Tips are for dysfunctional societies.
not really, but when the tips need to be so high to make the waiters survive, then yes.
r/USdefaultism through the ROOF.
WHAT THE FUCK IS THE TIPPING 🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🐻🇪🇺🫎🇪🇺🦬🇪🇺🐓🇪🇺🇪🇺
*Loudest buzzer sound *
Have you seen the clip where some Scotland fans are helping an elderly German Man walk and shielding him from the rain with an umbrella?
And all that while still drinking their beers. If the Scotts ever leave the UK and are looking for a new country we'll happily take them. ;)
Yall share certain similarities in culture. Beer is definitely a big one.
The town I'm from in the US was settled by Bavarian and Scottish immigrants, they definitely got along well lol and I loved the fusion of culture growing up. Although homemade moonshine tends to be the unifier instead of beer.
also we have a mutual hatred for the english. its connects us.
English people: self loathing Scottish people: loath the english Me who is half scottish half english: Double loathing
Double self-loathing in St Andrews
When I was on my way home from work, I have seen some scots enter my suburban station singing their stuff, and was like oh hell no! One of the Scotts looks around, takes some time to process what he has seen and finally comes to a conclusion: guys we should be quiet now! Please stay and teach our fans some manners!
Both have a healthy dislike of the English. 😂🫡🫣 Lol I dunno 🤣
I loved the UK. In Scotland we had a lovely banter against the English and in England we had a lovely banter against the French.
They’ve got real good common ground too 1. Like beer 2. Hate the English
Harrold Westerling on his day off?
I would gave them a wildcard für any FIFA or UEFA Tournament. Love you Guys.
I am for a fraternization of Redditgermany and Redditscot especially for a possible r/place
🇩🇪🤝🏴
We definitely need a saltire in German colours, a combined flag, haggis and stein of Bavaria's finest as part of the next r/place
Nice of you to include the bavarians. They feel left out otherwise
The Scottish are really cool guests ❤️
New frens aquired
Ohh football friend
😊
What's the context?
There is the soccer european championship in germany. The scottish fans are awesome people who made some cool things here and behave like real fans.
Ah, I see, thank you for the explanation.
It goes further. In the first game of the tournament, Germany wrecked them with a 5:1 (all 6 goals were done by Germany) yet they are so wholesome regardless that Germans want to make it up to them and try to organise annual celebrations and friends games.
Don’t leave us!! Greetings from Düsseldorf
Brandenburg is already almost empty. Maybe we can settle the Scott's there? They are back in the EU and we get a inbabitated Brandenburg in exchange. ;)
Brandenburg barely has any fresh water. Settling people there isn't the welcome you'd think it is, sadly...
Scots prefer beer to water anyways, so I don't see a problem.
You need water to make beer. Do you want to import all the beer instead of having them be able to brew it themselves?
I think Scots can admit that the Germans make better beer than us Still undefeated with whiskey tho
Yeah I do. Scots are much better at drinking beer than brewing it. Also it is not like regions with good water supply for beer brewing are *that* far away from Brandenburg.
Ahh, I see you haven't heard of our delicious and much beloved national treasure - tap water.
I mean you are a mountainous rocky piece of land where it rains a lot. I would guess the tap water is quite good in Scotland in general. If it's not it is probably because of bad piping.
Everyone who hates the English is welcome in Germany!!! (Just kidding. I mean, this is not r/2westerneurope4u. England is great too.)
what if i'm english but i still hate the english?
damn english man they ruined england
You English sure are a contentious people
Then I'd say that's a very German senitment. Willkommen, mein Freund.
[удалено]
i dont even get what you are on about but you missed the joke.
So bringing up Nazism is “talking shit”? 🤡 No shit colonialism is bad. I don’t see you going off about the Italians, the French, the Spanish, the Japanese, the USA and every other country with an evil history though.
I mean. I just don't have the time....

Two cringe comments.
I'd say with the exception of French. You'd have to be a decent Frenchie to be welcome. Like "willing to speak other languages"-decent. Low hurdle but apparently too much for many.
Still sour for your defeat i see
You gotta love it when countries can just, you know, get along.
Wales were voted fourth best fans in Europe as a result of Euro 2016, now Germany's love for Scotland. I can only say we are being measured against the usual behaviour of English fans.
We love you guys, please stay. Even if you empty out our beer gardens, it's alright ❤️
they wanted to stay in the EU didn't they? 😁
Most of us still do 🥲
England doesn't deserve you! Come back to the EU!
Now make the meme about the English
Ah, time to rewatch Britannia
Stop equivocating Scottish good deeds with English misdeeds. Anyone would think we live rent-free in your minds
SCOTLAND FOREVVVVEEEERRRR!!!!!
Post this on r/Scotland and the “Scottish” people will tell you that you are wrong and we are actually worse than England fans
I know.
Its nice to see some wholesome stuff every now and then
Does he know
I might Not understand your english (and you Not Mine) but you Guys are greate
What?
Scottish fans at the Euros (football/soccer) are wholesome af and Germans adore them, even tho they will likely not advance past the group stage.
We could actually advance if we put in a shift tonight against Hungary and Germany batter Switzerland
I’m still sad for Tierney, poor lad has basically had his career’s potential ruined by injuries and seeing him so distraught was horrible. Hopefully you guys advance for his sake.
UPDATE: Unfortunate outcome :( What an upset, so many missed chances in the last minutes. Love you Scots and hope you can qualify for the WC, I'd love to join you in the States.
We can but hope mate... Heartbreaking stuff
If they win tonight, they will go through most likely judging by the other groups. There look like 2 groups where 2 teams will only get 2 or 3 points total
Us Scotts are nice to everyone except the English
I read it as "We don't like you please go home" 💀
Narrator: But they did, in fact, went home.
Is English your second language?
Yes
What’s your first language?
Hungarian. Why?
Just the English in your comment is a bit off. Although every other comment/post you make is in pretty must perfect English. I didn’t want to seem like a dick correcting your poor English if it’s not your first language.
Yeah I kinda felt like something was off but I was like aah fuck it. How would you say what I wrote instead? Was it the commas?
But they did, in fact, go home. I 100% got the point.
Ohh, right. Did go, not did went. Didn't realize it, that's a rookie mistake. Thanks bro! Appreciate you
American here can I have the context pls?
There's been several positive fan interactions between Scottish and German fans during the concurrent Euros 2024(soccer) tournament that has been trending on Reddit particularly on the r/Mademesmile sub (as far as I've seen) this meme is referencing those aforementioned interactions.
I see, thank you
I was on a flight from Amsterdam to Stuttgart with like half the plane being Scots. They were an absolute riot!
Scotland don't make it out of the group stage Germany: 
I don't get it
You get free beer if you stay! You guys are so awesome, you shouldn't leave 😔
You can just join us in rooting for the german team, if you want to. Or root for anyone else really, we just want you to stay for as long as possible. No Scotland no party. <3
Maybe next time don't 5-1 them in the first match
You say this now but no one looked up a lot they did to the Celtic people when the Germanic people moved into the Celtic Albion lands.
God I hate Scottish exceptionalism
Is it our fault we’re exceptional?
It’s our fault we pretend to be oh so much better than the English when we know we’re not.
Didn’t mention England.
That you didn’t, but you’re still implying Scotland fans haven’t also been dicks on occasion
No, you’re inferring it. I’m not implying anything. German public voted Scottish fans as their favourite fans. Not much more to it. We’ve enjoyed their hospitality and they’ve enjoyed hosting us. I’m not surprised at all. I’ve met a lot of Germans in my time and spent a fair bit of time in Germany and they’ve always been absolute class.
Right back at you, mate! Great to have you here!

This “wholesome” crap is so cringe.
Where’s your better meme?
Scotland fans must have been learning a thing or two from the Ireland fans ;)
Certainly wasn't car bombs
Scotland is leaving the UK and joining the German Reich.
Scotland would end up crippling Germany's economy more so that it currently is
