FAQ's

1. Do I get an actual pass?
   
   No! Your pass is all linked to your Cat Card. Once you purchase your pass, the information will be placed on your Cat Card. Swipe your Cat Card at the ZonaZoo line and you're in! Please be aware that Cat Cards can only be used by the individual who owns it. Cat Cards ARE NOT transferable and if you are caught using someone else's card or letting someone use your card, the UA Police will be involved.
2. I'm having trouble ordering my pass online; what should I do?
   
   If you are having trouble with your ZonaZoo pass purchase, e-mail catsinfo@arizona.edu notifying them of the problem. You can also call 520-621-CATS for assistance.
3. How do I reserve a ticket?
   
   For football ticketing and all other sports except men's basketball seating is first come first serve. There is no reservation process. The first 9,000 students to swipe their Cat Card into Arizona Stadium will receive the seats. For the Men's Basketball reservation policy, see the link above.
4. Where and when do I pick up my ZonaZoo shirt?
   
   Everyone gets a free ZonaZoo T-shirt if they purchase a ZonaZoo pass. T-shirt distribution typically occurs during the first week of school. Once that information is available it will be posted here. *Please bring your cat card to t-shirt distribution.
5. Do I have an assigned seat?
   
   No! You can sit with your friends. Seating is first come, first served so the earlier you arrive the better spot you will get.
6. Where do I line up?
   
   The ZonaZoo line for football is on the East Side of the Stadium across from the Football Practice Facility. For Men's Basketball, there is a special ZonaZoo entrance on the west side of The McKale Center right by the bridge that connects McKale to the Cherry Garage. This is where you will lineup for Men's Basketball games.

ZonaZoo is a proud host of Bear Down Friday's at Main Gate Square on University Blvd. The day before each home football game hundreds of students, parents and members of the Tucson community gather for this event in anticipation for the game the following day. Starting at 6pm, the Pride of Arizona marches through and keeps the fans entertained with their incredible musicianship. Notable speakers from Arizona Athletics come and rile up the crowd. Pom-line, Wilbur, and Wilma get the crowd going and keep everyone up to date on all the Arizona cheers for the game.

Under the guidance of the Marshall Foundation, local businesses such as boutiques, clothing stores and restaurants have large scale sales and food and drink specials.

Bear Down Friday is a main attraction across Tucson and garners much media attention from around the community.
