Water Pistols: These are used to simulate the rainstorm that Brad and Janet are caught in. (Now you see why you should use the newspapers?)

Bubbles: At the end of the "Charles Atlas Song" reprise, the Transylvanians toss roses petals and streamers as Rocky and Frank are married. You should blow bubbles!
