You might want to check this one out.

Big John's Billiards is Lincolns largest pool hall.

Some local bars insist smoking ban is hurting business

Took less then 4 months of the ban to close it and put it's employees out on the street.

Read the rest of the story and see how many others don't think they will survive the summer.

"The health department's Burke said her office will be tracking economic data to see what if any effect the ban will have. She said the statistics offered by bar/restaurant owners so far may not be accurate."

Like her will be? Oh, I just love how businessmen don't know business, but health depts do.

The director of our city/gounty health dept. couldn't even pronounce the word statistic, and admitted not only that, but that he's a dumbass when it comes to that.

They're all filthy socialist scum.

Squeezer:

On the Official Lincoln Nebraska Council meetings "minutes" it is stated, after the Owner of Big John's announced the closing:

"The Council took the matter under advisement"

How much "advisement" do you think it will take to pay the unemployed employees rent?

Guess the non-smokers don't play much pool?
