A smoking ban will prevent NASCAR fans from lighting up in the grandstands at Daytona International Speedway starting with the Coke Zero 400 in July.
Fans will be required to use certain designated areas behind the grandstands once the ban takes effect.
Joie Chitwood III, the Speedway's president, said it's a sign of the times and that no other venue in Florida allows smoking in the stands.

Correct. We should ban everything that isn't totally needed for human survival. Heck we should just have central planning and government run grocery stores that sell only 10 items essential items needed for basic survival.
The Nascar Cup Series hasn’t been the Winston Cup Series since 2003.
Is there some other Winston Cup I don’t know about?
If someone smokes around me and I can smell it, I’ll die from lung cancer. It’s science and you can’t argue with science. It’s not a race track. It’s a DEATH TRACK. I don’t want to die in Daytona because some wretched inbred slob wants to satisfy his deadly addiction. I wanted to see Tony Stewart win and that shouldn’t be my final sight before I cough my last. Keep Smoke on the track,not in the stands. Watching a race should not be an immediate death sentence.

Not just Nascar but the whole culture. It's all part of the ongoing wussification of America. Think of how tough the people were that came across the west in covered wagons. A trip that took months and cost everything they had, and sometimes their lives. Now people whine and bellyache for a new law when somebody in the car next to them at the light is smoking a freakin' cigarette. Lord help us.
Liberal Obama boy.
N00bies suck too.
