I’ve been making a point of trying to give my money to businesses that don’t allow smoking – i.e, Caseys, Hillers (they recently stopped selling tobacco) and now ABC. I will definitely be in some evening this summer.

They’ll probably have to install baby changing tables under the vending machines in the washrooms. Now that a “shot and beer” bar is “public property”, the owner can no longer deny entry to ANYONE.

I love ABC, the dartboards, shuffleboard, and beer. I have to be honest though, I sometimes avoided ABC because the smell and thickness of smoke was so bad. This is a great decision.

Almost all states exempt tobacco shops (If it’s called a “smoke shop,” do you really expect nonsmokers to work there?) and many exempt cigar bars as well.

But advocates here are happy to put them out of business. What’s another empty storefront, right?
