yup.

I also remember when restaurants, and other places, had cigarettes you could buy from vending machines.

I remember there was one Tim Horton's in my town that had a smoking section. They stopped allowing it fifteen years or so ago.

In a town near me, they brought back smoking in restaurants just a few years ago. They didn't even have a section for it. We went into a restaurant, got seated, smelled smoke, asked "do they allow smoking in here?", received response in the affirmative, left, never went back.

Pulling on the cigarette vending machine pull knobs was fun.

I always thought it was silly because there was nothing stopping the smoke from wafting over into the non-smoking section. I thought it was downright brilliant when I went to a 3 floor McDonalds in New Orleans and the third floor was the smoking section

Tbqh I never really got the appeal of smoking at the dinner table, or inside at all for that matter. I was a smoker for years, and my preference was always to go outside. Going to a person's house who smokes indoors was always gross

Yeah. I had a friend who was a smoker, so we would always sit in the smoking section. It was disgusting as all hell, but you never had to wait for a table.

I lived in a town like 6 years ago where you still could if the owner allowed it

Yeah, but it was almost exactly like that scene in the King of the Hill when Hank and Peggy pick up smoking again. Theyre so stoked to smoke in a restaurant like in their youth but its all trailer trash and dirty.

Yeah. In a weird way, I miss that stale smoke smell in various places. At least casinos still got it.

As a nonsmoker who lives in the OK that smell is Universal here.
