Was the 90s, before the nationwide ban on smoking in public places and restaurants. Which I think happen very shortly after I graduated... I recall a protest about allowing smoking on campus at college.

Anyhow the highschool I went to wasn't exactly with it. Basically was in the boonies and under the radar of national regulations. I kind of feel like they just let the seniors use the space to avoid conflicts with the aggressively redneck families that populated the area. Same went for all the lifted trucks waving confederate flags, no one was about to start that fight.
