That's not what people in Ohio are telling me, including non-smokers.
I’ve heard 100 bars have closed here in Ohio. It’s pretty pathetic that hubby and I have to go to Vegas for him to enjoy a cigar with his adult beverage. There is a word called CHOICE, but the other side WANTS IT ALL and got it. Sad that there couldn’t be some sort of compromise where almost everyone would have been happy. Because of that, there are a lot of unhappy adults here in Ohio. There is not one single place in the state of Ohio where an adult can partake of a tobacco product; private clubs are even illegal, and the vets cannot smoke in their own VFW halls. PATHETIC. At least Michigan seems not to be that draconian about it.
I tried to go to Sam’s Coney Island for some take-out last night (I am a lover of hot dogs). It had been in business for 5-6 years, and had allowed smoking before the ban. I’d noticed last time I got take-out I was the only one there. It is now GONE. Closed and dark.
