Well, I live in upstate NY where there are LOTS of poolhalls, bars, and such with no smoking anymore and guess what, they not only don't appear to be hurting, but they look to have more business then ever. Lots of these places are now crowded. The smokers aren't leaving (they go outside for a cig) and the non-smokers are coming when they weren't before because now they won't smell like smoke. I'm not saying this is the case all over, I'm just presenting a case where it doesn't appear that the ban is hurting business at all.
