New casino should be smoke-free

The new Cedar Rapids casino is missing a big chance to be unique and different. Have it all smoke-free.
When we lived near Council Bluffs, we had chances to go to three casinos there for shows and food, not gambling so much. They all have smoke-free areas. Sorry to say that doesn't work. The smoking smells are everywhere inside. When you leave, you and your clothes stink.
We will spend our entertainment dollars at smoke-free restaurants and venues, not the new casino if it allows smoking any place inside.
