Geocache Description:


This is one of 67 geocaches placed to commemorate the 2026 Waukesha Janboree, with this year's theme being Out of this World.  You’re looking for a small size cache hidden at Waukesha’s Frame Park. Parking is available in the lot just 200 feet south of the cache.

Keeping with the Janboree theme, "It's up, it's up, it's outta here" in a way relates to the out of this world theme, but more commonly refers to a home run in baseball. But here’s the fun twist: that exact phrasing - “It’s up, it’s up, it’s out of here!” - doesn’t actually match any famous, documented home‑run call from the big-name broadcasters. But the closest and most culturally recognizable version is absolutely from Bob Uecker, the legendary Milwaukee Brewers announcer.  Uecker called his last game a little over a year ago, after an amazing 54 seasons as the voice of the Brewers.

Ueck’s signature call was:

“Get up, get up, get out of here… GONE!”

The title of this geocache is a paraphrase of Uecker's - which people in Milwaukee do all the time, especially since fans were recently honoring him by shouting their own versions of his home‑run call.

His advice to players often wasn’t technical - it was perspective, and it applies to both baseball and geocaching: 
•     Keep the game fun
•     Stay loose
•     Don’t let slumps define you
•     Remember the game is entertainment
•     Laugh at yourself before someone else does
