Annotation	Given its operation time and wide field of view, the Fluorescence Detector (FD) of the Pierre Auger Observatory is sufficiently sensitive to detect upward-going events when used in monocular mode. Upward-going air showers are a possible interpretation of the recent events reported by the ANITA Collaboration in the energy range above 1017 eV. The Pierre Auger FD data can be used to support or constrain this interpretation. If confirmed, it would require either new phenomena or significant modifications to the standard model of particle physics.
