You Can Light Up Again in AC Casinos

Sunday signals end of smoking ban in casinos

The countdown to light up again was on for people who love to smoke while they play the odds in Atlantic City.

They knew at 12:01 Sunday, the smoking ban would be lifted, at least for an entire year.

Smokers like Gladys Bryan of Philadelphia couldn't wait.

Standing on the Boardwalk outside the Atlantic City Hilton Casino Resort (one of two casinos that forced its gamblers to go outside to smoke during the ban), she complained to the Courier Post about having to leave a hot slot machine that had been paying off for her in order to grab a smoke just outside the casino door.
