You realize people come to New Orleans to drink and party and that a lot of those people smoke. New Orleans is not like other major cities.
If 80% of the population are non-smokers, then wouldn't it stand to reason this would make New Orlea s more attractive? Louisiana (and the South) has a higher % of smokers tha m other parts of the country. Most people in the US these days do prefer to avoid places with smoke, even when they are going to "drink and party".
The economic impact of this is negligible to positive I'd bet, but again, thats not the point.

They could have done that before the ban.

it begs the question why smoke-free bars weren't winning the market if 80% of the market is smoke-free
