Translation (deepl): Cologne (dpo) – The fans of the Scottish national team are already considered the most likeable of this European Championship – as proven by numerous videos on social media. Now a group of visibly intoxicated Scots have rescued 40 children from a burning orphanage in Cologne. Afterwards, they carried on singing as if nothing had happened.
“The Scottish fans probably just happened to be passing by,” describes an eyewitness. “They took a quick look at the burning orphanage, then one of them shouted ‘Got tae save the wee bairns’ and then they just stumbled in and took them out one by one.”
They always held a child in one hand and a beer in the other. One of the Scotsmen accompanied the whole rescue operation on a bagpipe.
An astonished crowd quickly formed, cheering every time a child was rescued.
By the time the fire brigade arrived and were able to start extinguishing the fire, all the children had been rescued.
The Scottish fans had long since moved on – “to the nearest pub to refuel”, as they put it. They had become thirsty from all the fire.
England fans were seen laughing at the burning building and throwing rocks at the animals in a nearby pets corner.
Don’t forget the puppies. There were puppies in there as well. England fans were seen with matches, laughing in a sinister way fanning the flames.
😂😂
Germany now fully endorsing a referendum on Scottish extradition to the EU.
Der Postillion is the German equivalent of The Onion, and it’s actually pretty funny.
My favourite article they did was about [Windows getting an update to have five recycle bins](https://www.der-postillon.com/2017/06/windows-nachhaltig.html) and you’d need to sort the right type of file in the right bin. Even if you don’t speak German, you can work out what “Papierkorb”, “Altvideos”, “Musiktonne”, “Fototonne” and “Restmüll” are.

It should be obvious, but this is satire

This is hilarious 🤣
Did they not do this about the Irish fans at 2016 euros?
Joining a pantheon of Scottish heroes.

As an Irish I’m just annoyed we couldn’t be there to rescue the other 60 orphans the Scots couldn’t be arsed saving.
