It really is pretty ridiculous at this point. Pre Covid , everyone could still make the argument that they may lose gambling revenue if they went nonsmoking. Post Covid, every land casino I know of north of New York City (maybe PA seems to be an exception), and probably several hundred miles further out, are completely nonsmoking now. And the revenue has certainly not dropped…they are busier than ever.
Add the fact that more than half of the people polluting the casino don’t actually ever gamble and just use it as their personal smoking section because it’s closer than going upstairs to a smoking area…….it’s time for it to go, permanently.
