    The whole country of Ireland went non-smoking about a year and a half or so ago.

    And I bet people aren't drinking less Guinness.

    Self righteous non-smokers, please get over yourself.

    Notice there are plenty of other factors there. Watch the problem there go away when the construction is done.

    There are indeed casinos which have smoke-free floors or wings. Foxwoods in Connecticut (and Mohegan Sun, too, I believe) is one such place.

    Smoke as much as you want, Point.
    I could care less.
    Just don't ruin my air.

    Possibly.

    I think the two factors, more important than the non-smoking legislation, are the price of gas and the high loonie.

    Visiting Canada isn't the deal it used to be. Our dollar hasn't been this strong in at least a decade.

    Caesars Indiana has a wing (or at least used to) that was smoke-free. It was the most crowded section on the boat.

    All three Detroit casinos also have a non-smoking floor or wing.

    As I found out when the hotel bill showed up in my bank statement. :-\

    Smoking, drinking and gambling pretty much go together so casinos don't have a whole lot of incentive to go smoke-free.

    Pardon us for breathing... or at least trying to. ;D
