The 1962–63 Scottish Cup was the 78th staging of Scotland's most prestigious football knockout competition. The Cup was won by Rangers who defeated Celtic in the replayed final. The first round tie between Airdrie and Stranraer is notable for having been rearranged no fewer than 33 times due to inclement weather during the winter of 1962–63 in the United Kingdom.^[1]
