Go to the metal section in Home Depot where all the rainspouts are and so forth --

You'll so find a stack of steel or tin sheets -- about 4' by 4' -- and when I was examining one it made a very distintive thunderstorm-type booming every time I turned it one way or another. About $10 per sheet, as I recall.

It's how they used to make thunder in the old theaters. Hang the sheet by your bar (or disguise) and when a guest enters or they just like they're being lame and deserve, give it a good rattle or whack it with stick!
