I may be wrong about this, but I think that in Florida, smoking is only banned in establishments that serve food. So you can still smoke in nightclubs as long as a certain percentage of their revenue doesn't come from food service. So like, you can smoke at a club down in Ybor, but you can't at Hooters.

Soror, you are correct.

"The ban on workplace smoking does not apply to private residences (unless they are providing commercial child care), retail tobacco shops, designated smoking rooms at motels and hotels, and stand alone bars (which serve only "customary bar snacks" and generate no more than 10% of gross revenue from food sales). Also exempted are membership association facilities, such as VFW halls, U.S. Customs lounges at international airports, outdoor patio sections of restaurants, smoking cessation programs, and medical or scientific research."
