Although I can assure that specific number of people weren't likely enough to bankrupt the joint, couldn't have helped losing them. "Smokin' Bully's" = The Suck.
The real fail w/ the "Smokin Bully's" isn't just that the smoking lounges suck, it's that they suck *and* they cost Bully's a crapload of money to build.

Expend a bunch of capital to build something that sucks just as the economy takes a crap = Chapter 11.
