Smoking ban put into effect one year ago
Slauson said he hasn’t seen anything like this drop in sales during the past 24 years that he’s owned the business…
Administrator Richard Zurn said the smoking ban has cut bar business in half at the lodge.
“It’s hurt our business tremendously,” Zurn said Thursday. “It’s way, way down…”
“Everybody smokes in a bar,” he said. “If you don’t want the smoke, don’t work there.”
“People used to come in and stay,” he said. “Now they come in, have one beer, and leave.”
