+SerenityNow Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 In the true "Seinfeldian" manner we yell one of two things.... "Lemon Tree" or "Tippy Toe" Quote Link to comment
+BeachBuddies Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 Hoody Hoo! of course, seeing as I first learned about caching from the Knights of the Dinner Table. Quote Link to comment
+shawhh Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 usually cache by myself. don't say anything, just look furtively around to see if anyone is nearby, adopt a suitably sneaky look and go for the cache. of course if i don't find it then a scowl is adopted and a lot of profane muttering comes forth, eventually followed by a dejected look and an "oh well". see you out there. -harry Quote Link to comment
+pater47 Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 usually wit me, it's "Ouch! I just stepped on something!" Quote Link to comment
+The Blind Acorn Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 If it's a cache by Rover-r-us then "Good grief, finally." If a cache by CacheHunter1 then "Ha ha, got ya again." Usually. Oh THERE it is... Quote Link to comment
+OurWoods Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 "I see it" sometimes "I found it" Quote Link to comment
+GatoRx Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 meadowmuffin and I use variations of the "Huckle Buckle Beanstalk!!!" yell - her cousin told us about it on one of his FL trips from NY. I've taught it to a few cachers around here, but I don't know how well its caught on. If we're out in the middle of nowhere, and want to give the others a chance, the finder will walk away, wait a minute or two, then yell "HUCKLE BUCKLE BEANSTALK!!!!" If its a more urban location, or we need stealth for some reason, its a more low key "huckle buckle," as the finder retrieves the container. Quote Link to comment

+JohnnyVegas Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 If it was an easy find "found it" If it a cache that took a while like ite a while and maybe a second trip looking for it " there you are you, you *&%$^**&*& cache. Quote Link to comment
+Gazza&Girls Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 After aimlessly moving away from the hide with a smug grin, the words "Found it." eventually escape. The first finder usually ends up seeking higher ground for some reason. That "Huckle Buckle" thing sounds interesting. I'll have to check with the team. Quote Link to comment
4x4luv Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 One of these; OUCH I stubbed my toe on something. or I just tripped and cracked my head open on this stupid metal box Quote Link to comment
+KF6JML Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 After aimlessly moving away from the hide with a smug grin, the words "Found it." eventually escape. The first finder usually ends up seeking higher ground for some reason. Since I usually geocache with others, we employ the Gazza&Girls method. Although, this makes you keep an eye on where others have been looking. Quote Link to comment
+Geo Ho Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 (edited) Superdiddlyooper!!! Anyone who knows me knows that is would NEVER say something as goof as that!! HA! Happy caching and stuff! Edited March 12, 2004 by Geo Ho Quote Link to comment
+Leapin' Lizards Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 Slymed's quote: "I spy!" Gulp says nothing, just sits down and rolls his eyes in a true teenage manner. Sometimes we get, "Well, duh guys, it's right here, you can stop looking already." Slyther, who finds caches about as often as she manages to pull a run in pinochle: "YES, YESSSS, ha ha HA, woo HOOOOOO, finally, the lady's in da house, found-it-found-it-found-it, uh HUH, you KNOW it, OH yeah. Now somebody get over here and get me out of these blackberry bushes before I bleed to death." Quote Link to comment
+Cool Librarian Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 If I'm alone, usually nothing. BUT, if it's been a toughie, then "yes!" or "thank G_d!" usually does the trick. In a group, the boring "got it!" or "over here" usually suffices. If I am with someone who just about always beats me to the cache, "heh, suckah" mumbled under my breath works for me! Then I either say nothing and let him sweat, or I dance around waving the cache like a moron. Quote Link to comment

+RockyRiver Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 I usually cache alone and I just think to myself, "Finally, Its about time". When I find the cache. But I do like the other one that someone else posted where he says,"There you are you SOB". I think I will start using that saying instead. Quote Link to comment
+Planet Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 When I'm alone I don't yell anything, I look around to make sure no one is watching. When I'm with my local friends, I yell Here it is! or Aha! or something. When I'm caching with cachers, like Ttepee and Cloudchaser, we agreed that this would be how we do it. The first person to find it pretends they didn't see it and looks a minute more or so, and then finds a comfy spot to sit down. It isn't long before the others realize you found it and they try to remember where you were looking, you know they weren't really watching you because they were also seeking the cache. I play this as a hide and seek game in the house with my cousin's kids too. Cache and Go Seek, I can't hide as well as I could when I was small, so hiding an object is much better. When I'm winter caching and we've been looking under snow and ice for 45 minutes and I find it, you know I'll yell out I GOT IT! or WOO HOO! But, basically, I have no set phrase to yell.

+The Navigatorz Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 Hexacolamichewachy onkeytonky unka hey diddle I diddle oh diddle ay. Just kidding. When I'm by myself I usually say "There you are", but when I'm with my wife I usually say "Where did you find it?" Quote Link to comment
SCP-173 Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 I begin speaking in archaic tongues, and lose control of myself. I once even ate the person I was caching with. Quote Link to comment
+Latitude 26 Posted March 16, 2004 Share Posted March 16, 2004 I say "Tally-Ho", but only when I'm with someone. Otherwise I think to myself, "Tally-Ho"... (It was a code word we once used on the F.D. radio when we found a plane that had crashed in the woods the night before, so the news people wouldn't be tipped off that it was located - and it worked!)

+Wild_Thornberrys Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 My son and I are diehard Star Wars fans, so when one of us finds the cache we use the Tusken Raider yell from the movie: Luke is looking through his binoculars at two Banthas, then a Tusken Raider attacks him, knocks him unconscious and stands over him shaking his staff and yelling something that sounds like "arrrr-rrarrrrrr-uuugggg-arrrrrrr". If you were in the woods, off in the distance and heard one of us yell this out, you would run crying back to your car. M Quote Link to comment
IronMaiden Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 (edited) If I find it I usually whistle at Ironman114, then he just looks over with amazment. If he fines it, well he'll just walk away and watches me find it. Sometimes it takes a couple of seconds, other times longer. Especially, when I think he just walked right passed it and then I find out he already spotted it. Now I just ask him,"Did you see this first?" Then he laughs.
