On Saturday afternoon more than 50,000 people will be at Hampden Park to see Hearts and Hibs go head-to-head in the Scottish Cup final.
Hundreds of thousands more will be watching on TV.
It will be the first time since 1896 that the two Edinburgh sides have faced each other in the end-of-season showpiece.
That 116 year gap has generated an incredible sense of excitement that stretches far beyond the capital city.
To look ahead to the big game, Scotland Tonight was joined by the diehard jambo, councillor Eric Milligan, and the fanactical Hibee, broadcaster Grant Stott.
