I'm glad to be reminded of that rule before the season begins. I'm not sure I would have been 100% clear on "thundersticks" etc. Noisemakers isnt (for me anyway) and issue that comes up much. And the remedy here could be very severe: "AD please have the PA announce that the crowd cannot use the thundersticks." I would have been hesitant to take that extreme action without being 100% sure that I was right about the rule. Now that this issue has been raised, I am ready to deal with the issue. That is why I love this discussion board. I'm sure there are a bunch of other rules that I dont encounter much (maybe others do) that I read some time ago and didnt pay as much attention to or remember as well as, say, legal screening or things like that. Thanks for bringing this up and helping me to remember
