Ahhh, I have such memories of a certain outdoor patio in a downtown Houston bar. Having a few beers, smoking and joking.... watching rats as big as possums scurry up the alley.
What I like is the BS they used to sell this agenda. “It’ll make Houston a ‘world class city’.”
Then they gave an exemption to our convention center and other out of towner conference locations because they didn’t want to lose convention business.
Seems to be a world class city you DO need to permit smoking.
