Let's see, tobacco and alcohol are still LEGAL substances for adults to consume and use.....
This is just crazy! Good luck to this tavern owner. I can't imagine a tavern being in business without smoking!
It is a smoking/drinking place for adults.
I don't see WHY anyone else cares what happens there.
This is just crazy!

They are not alone.  Maine forced the restaurants to go smoke-free in 1999.  Then, the 1st of January of this year they forced the bars/taverns and sports clubs to go smoke free.  I haven't been out to eat since then.

They started the last prohibition with a Tax Stamp, this one starts with public bans for health reasons. WOD is going to grow some in the next decade.
