The Total Ban

Aug 4, 2005



So finally the smoking ban has taken away something that I liked. Bob's Gridiron Grille & Pigskin Pub. Adam and I went at 10:30 last night to feast on some $0.25 tacos, but the parking lot was vacant, and they had signs up in the windows that read:
"Another business closes. Enjoy your smoke-free Lincoln."
Sad news because this place had the most Husker Football memorabilia that I've ever seen in my life.

Although, I'm not going to sit here and say, "Let's reverse the ban so we can get Bob's back." I still stand by saying that it's a good thing. Maybe a new Pastime Pub will open up there in its place. There are still 2 nights out of the week when you can buy tacos for $0.25. There are a lot of restaurants and bars that are still operating almost a year after this went into effect. I love walking into a place to eat, and not having to answer, "Smoking or Non?" I really can't put a price on it, but it's almost worth its weight in gold.

In a non-related (but somewhat related to what I wrote) story, maybe smoking is the answer. Maybe it's old fashion, but everywhere you look on tv, after "you're done", people are always laying around smoking a cigarette. Maybe that's what [ this stupid guy ] should've done!
