We knew that you were experiencing high degrees of irritability, some serious discontent, and even periods of genuine lonely isolation at being deprived of the real news and updates from the ZONE. Well, your problems are solved, not all of your problems of course; in fact compared to the rest of the problems you may have, solving these few could seem rather insignificant. Nevertheless, below you will find an ever-changing selection of tasty morsels to keep you informed of the events, both real and imagined, occurring at ULTRAZONE San Diego.
Should you have any newsworthy or otherwise interesting tidbits that you yearn to have included, just e-mail us and we will review them for content, originality, humor, whether we like you, how much money you've spent at the site, your personal grooming habits, how many nice things you've said to us at the front counter, and lots of other basically irrelevant guidelines.
ONE HOUR ENDURANCE Event Set For Mother’s Day Afternoon Mother’s Day Sunday, May 13th Pre-Opening, - 1:00pm Endurance Game
Yes, your favorite ZONE special game is set for Mother’s Day at 1:00pm. As you probably know, the earliest Mother's Day celebrations can be traced back to the spring celebrations of ancient Greece in honor of Rhea, the Mother of the Gods. As you also probably know, President Woodrow Wilson, in 1914, made the official announcement proclaiming Mother's Day as a national holiday that was to be held each year on the 2nd Sunday of May. So now it’s time for ULTRAZONE to offer it’s moment of celebration (actually 60 moments) in honor of all mothers. Think of it, a special opportunity to play 60 solid minutes of laser tag at ULTRAZONE for only $15.00 per game (we know this is probably too cheap, but go ahead and take advantage of us). As most of you know, our Endurance games always sell out so to avoid a painful disappointment sign up early (we just hate seeing sad ZONE players). Make certain you arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled start time.
NOTE: Formal sign-ups and CASH PRE-PAYMENT are required for all Endurance games.
NOTE: Endurance payments are cash only! - Sorry, absolutely no refunds!

Yes, your favorite ZONE special game is back at DOUBLE THE INTENSITY during the Memorial Day weekend.

ULTRAZONE Now a “Gum Free” ZONE
Well after almost eleven years of removing more gum from the lobby and briefing room carpet than you could even possibly imagine (we’re talking many hundreds of ugly carpet gum messes each year), we’ve decided that WE’RE DONE WITH GUM. That’s right you and your gum will have to part company BEFORE you enter ULTRAZONE. There’s a really nice, large cement trash receptacle near the front door, so just gear yourself up to spit that bad boy into the can.
Of course we’re never really been able to understand why anyone would spit their gum onto the carpet anyway, but we do have a few theories
The “Chewing Gum Challenged” Theory. In their early development, these poor folk never learned to keep items in their mouth while chewing, certainly a true tragedy. Consequently, gum and other foodstuffs just fly out of their mouths depositing on other people or objects or ultimately the floor. It is unknown whether this malady is a problem with poor childrearing or a genetic anomaly.
The “Hostile Gum Chewer-It Sucks To Be You” Theory. Now these are the more aggressive and angry gum chewers. They get great pleasure thinking about the ULTRAZONE staff that clean up their gum. They find the best location they can, and then they spit their gum onto the designated carpet target area and then immediately press the gum into the carpet with their foot. Obviously from abusive gum chewing households, they continue the abusive pattern into public places.
The “Duh, What Happened to My Gum” Theory. Perhaps the most heart rendering theory, these unfortunate chewers have no memory of what happened to their gum- sort of a brain-mouth disconnect if you will. They are shocked to find that they are no longer chewing the gum that was at a prior moment in fact in their mouths. They simply no longer have a lucid connection to the gum chewing moment. This is a form of amnesia caused by a trauma to the head or by just being a moron
The “Heathen/Raised by Wolves” Theory- A product of a culture very foreign from one we typically see in normal society, this gum chewer can be recognized by a pattern of abnormal gum chewing. These sub-humans chew with mouths open and are known to “crack” their gum and then just spit it randomly onto the ground. The gum “cracking” is only recently recognized as a sub-vocal warning of territorial rights, much as the male gorilla beats his chest to signify dominance. Oblivious to others outside of their basic tool making society, attempts to get them to disengage from such practice are rarely successful and often met with aggressive posturing.
Bottom line is that gum chewing is pretty much a sickening and nasty habit!
So remember gum and ULTRAZONE don’t mix!
