Please don't start spreading these misleading facts. The revenue fall
began BEFORE the smoking rules took effect in April, after the
additional competition from casinso in PA and other areas increased
earlier in the year. After the new new smoking rules took effect, the
revenue declines continued.
There is no accurate way to determine now how much is due to each
reason, however the significant downfall BEGAN after the competition
came online and before the smoking rules did.
