Reds getting smoked, you can't smoke at GABP

It's 5-1. Adam Dunn homered in the fourth. Brian Meadows gave up a run in the fifth. The Reds announced this:

CINCINNATI - Great American Ball Park, pursuant to Ohio Revised Code Chapter 3794, has been designated a completely non-smoking facility.

On November 7, Ohio voters passed legislation that bans smoking in public facilities and places of employment.

Fans will not be permitted to smoke inside Great American Ball Park, and fans will not be permitted to exit and re-enter for the purpose of smoking.

No smoking at GABP?? Bullsheet.

Not being allowed to step out of GABP to smoke and then come back in?? More bullsheet.

Ive been there once with florida relatives because they wanted to see the park and the reds.I have no personal desire to see them, i wouldnt go if i had free tickets and a private box. so the smoking makes no difference one way or the other to me, except that society seems to love new laws and rules. Just wait till all resturants are required to do all cooking flameless so there putting no smoke in the air.

Just another reason I've decided to no longer attend any games, among others.
