Easier to answer is what is not an articicial noise maker:

They are:

Yelling with nothing in your hand to amplify it, clapping with your bare hands and stomping your feet on the ground or the bleachers.

What if a fan has a prosthetic hand? It's artificial. He should not be allowed to clap.

What's the difference between artificial noise & the genuine kind?

The artificial kind annoys me. So, if it annoys me, it's not allowed.

Ah, so you're the "esteemed member" who tried to get the mods to delete all of Dan's posts. . .

Would bleachers be an artificial noisemaker when stomped upon? Hmmmm....

The difference is that artificial noise isn't allowed during a game. So all that noise you hear is the genuine kind.

Nope. And to prove it, just last night I overheard a coach and his assistant agree that I am "the genuine article", whatever that means.

Are you sure they didn't say "piece of work?"
