Per NCAA rules never for noise makers...

Not entirely true. Per NCAA they are prohibited when the game is in progress, meaning they CAN be used before the game, during timeouts & intermissions.

However...during a game this season a security person asked me during a timeout if noisemakers can be used. After I gave her this explanation she turned & walked into the stands & confiscated some horn type noisemakers. I had the feeling she was going to do that no matter what I told her. She was tough!
