Well...I play volleyball at a Turners club in Wilmington Delaware and they decided to stop smoking at the bar last year. Now they've decided to ban my PV. What a load of crap. Guess I won't be drinking there so much now.
Seriously...I wish people would research things before they just ban them.

edit - even more - threatened to cancel my membership if I stealth vape...really? Next thing you know they are going to tell me not to breathe.

Agreed, but I don't think it is just that . . . even if the owner of an establishment knows that they are many are likely to prohibit their use based on not wanting to have to explain to the other patrons exactly what it is you are doing and they'd rather not be bothered.

Personally, I HATE that but from a business owners stand point I get it - I don't like it but I get it. :(

I get it too ... BUT, business owners like that don't _get_ my money though.

Me neither . . .

It is my hope that in the future when our numbers are greater and more people are educated in regards to PVs things will change.

The only thing that keeps me from being confident in that is that a lot of e-liquids DO smell despite the "no odor" claims. So imagine you're sitting in a restaurant and the person to left of you is vaping Cotton Candy, the person to the right of you is vaping Dr. Pepper and the person right behind you is vaping a Flue Cured tobacco flavor.

Sure, but that happens anyway; the person to the right needs to take a shower, the person to the left is wearing a gallon of Drakkar Noir, the person behind me ordered the nachos. When are those people getting kicked out? Maybe next time I'll complain.

Good point. I hadn't thought of it that way. A lot of the neighborhood bars have an insanely pungent odor of buttery popcorn. I guess if a person likes mint, they could vape mint in public without getting too many frowns and glares.
