In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Hoch werden wir’s nimmer gewinnen” is a rare card of the German Memes pack, number 291 of the collection, and the 39th best-known meme of its 300 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Hoch werden wir’s nimmer gewinnen” meme mean?
The line voices a weary verdict: the result is settled and the gap will not grow. It is funny because it sounds like an accidental admission from a commentator or a player. Use it pitchside, in front of a televised match, or about a project moving slower than planned. The Austrian dialect, with its “nimmer”, adds a tender, fatalistic touch.
Where does the “Hoch werden wir’s nimmer gewinnen” meme come from?
The line is tied to the year 1999 and to Austrian football. On YouTube it appears in edits such as “AUT of ORDA & das Nationalteam – hoch gwimmas (n)imma” and in compilations of the country’s funniest football interviews. That presence shows the line travelled from sport to internet users, who lift it out of the match and use it in daily life. The precise game behind it is still to be established.
