Then you and your wife should take full advantage, and start frequenting LOTS and LOTS and LOTS of bars, restaurants, and bowling alleys in banned areas. Sounds like they're really hurting. And try to get some of your non-smoking friends to join you.

Some of these places have to turn people away on weekends due to potential fire code violations. I suspect that the businesses that are hurting were hurting before the ban, but now they have an excuse.
