I'm sure they'd make an exception for this guy. In fact they'll make it legal - just for him.

Um, it’s MICHAEL FREAKIN’ JORDAN!!!

...and the practice round he participated in was probably a fund raiser as well where he's donating his time to appear or maybe paying for it as well with a hefty donation. (I might be wrong too...)

SF is wackytown.

I thought I kept running into homeless people talking to themselves but they actually have bluetooths and cellphones.

And I don’t call them homeless because they looked like stinking hippies 40 years later. I call them homeless because they had their hands out with begging signs.

Tobacco is a plant. When you burn a plant you are hurting the environment and you make Smokey The Bear CRY!!

I HATE smoke and think smoking is disgusting and stupid.

That said, outdoor smoking bans in wide open, public spaces are outrageous.

But, being San Francisco, if he was involved in too public same sex “affections”, that would be ok. But cigars offend the sensibilities of the liberal SF gov’t officials, not graphic sexual displays.

in NV we could smoke and drink on the course

How in the world did the stupid humans in America decide that you can't smoke or even drink outside in the fresh air?

I quit smoking a few years back but I still imagine defending myself in a "second-hand smoking" lawsuit by asking for verifiable, measurable, life-threateneing lung damage inflicted by me and me alone as opposed to general air pollution, their own closer proximity to other smokers, their own possible smoking experiences (of all kinds) their proximity to their own car's exhaust pipe, outdoor barbecues, etc.

This prohibiting of legal behavior without demonstrable harm is ANATHEMA to a free society.

And it's getting worse by the day, if not the hour.

Are they going to ask them not to drink beer while golfing also?

Smoking is unacceptable but cheating on your wife is cool!

I think they need to mind their own business.

Another reason to never, ever, visit San Francisco, or anywhere they have such stupid, invasive laws.

I lived in the East Bay Area during my high school years. No matter where you go all you see is God's handy work in the beauty that surrounds you. The sight of the morning fog rolling across the bay from the Pacific Ocean will leave you breathless. It is such a shame that the scum bags that live there insure that I will never see that beauty again. But I do miss it.
