Crowds of Norwegian fans are tapping into their Viking heritage as they flock to Boston for their nation's first World Cup appearance in 28 years. They're also charming locals with synchronized "Viking rows."

A video taken at Boston's South Station shows dozens of Norway fans โ€” some wearing Viking helmets and draped in Norwegian flags โ€” performing synchronized rowing motions.

The group chanted "Hoo! Hoo!" as they rode up an escalator, mimicking a Viking longship crew.
