It is the first time their country has qualified for the tournament since 1998 and they have never got beyond the first round in eight previous attempts.
But some supporters are backing their team to go all the way, even though they are 250/1 to lift the trophy.
Nearly 1,000 Scots have bought less expensive seats for the final.
They face mighty plus and minnows Haiti in the group stage, after clinching a place with an epic 4-2 win over at Glasgow’s raucous in November.
If fail to reach the final in on Sunday July 19, those with tickets will get refunds after the tournament is over.
A Scottish football source said: “This shows the incredible dedication of Scotland’s fans — although they must realise they have a snowball’s chance of reaching the final.
“But football is all about fans who dare to dream.”
The Scotland squad will arrive at this summer’s games in tailored suits — ditching the traditional kilts worn during the country’s last appearance in in 1998.
