UECK: Bob Uecker The Story of Baseball's Most Unlikely Legend

When & where

About this event

Join us for a screening of "UECK: Bob Uecker, The Story of Baseball's Most Unlikely Legend" in the historic Five Flags Theater. The evening will include a short pre-film concert featuring Skip Griparis and a post-film Q&A panel discussion with Skip alongside Michael Vollmann, co-director of UECK, and other possible guests. Filmed over the final three years of his life with remarkable access, this intimate documentary captures Uecker as he reflects on the improbable journey that carried him from the dugouts of Major League Baseball to late-night television, Hollywood, and the broadcast booth of the Milwaukee Brewers - where his voice became synonymous with summer for fans across the Midwest. Screening of UECK is made possible in part, through the support of presenting partners, Travel Dubuque, Field of Dreams Movie Site, the Julien Dubuque International Film Festival, and QueenB Radio including ESPN Radio AM 1590, a member of the Milwaukee Brewers Radio Network.
