- While English speakers say 'Go!', the German 'Auf geht's' literally translates to 'Up goes it', which captures a sense of rising momentum rather than just simple movement.
- The word auf in this context is an Upper German variation, meaning it originates from the dialects spoken in the southern regions of Germany, which is where the club is actually based.
- In German football culture, chanting Auf geht's is often accompanied by rhythmic clapping that synchronizes the crowd into a single percussive beat.
