It all started with a t-shirt and a vision in 2002, ever since then it has continued to grow and has become the largest student section in the PAC-12. After officially being implemented in 2003, ZonaZoo’s membership has increased at an unprecedented rate and this newfound spirit has permeated throughout the University of Arizona campus, the Tucson community, and the state of Arizona. The ZonaZoo has established itself as a monstrous force that has forever changed school spirit by creating a tighter knit campus and community. Students and community members now immediately recognize the “Sea of Red” at basketball and football games and they know that it stands for a united body that is both diverse and eclectic.

   This united body shares an interest in University of Arizona Athletics and at the same time it is composed of future scientists, doctors, lawyers, business leaders and public servants that are poised to lead our country in the future. Compared to similar universities with established spirit programs, the ZonaZoo has surpassed them in spirit and in attendance.
