Is it fair to say that a greater percentage of people smoke in pool than other sports?

Darts maybe as well. Without any research, I'd say yes. Pool does not require a lot of aerobic activity like baskeball or soccer does, so pool players can smoke with no harm to their game.
You're asking the question backwards in my opinion. It should be "How many smokers play pool?"
I submit that if rooms were to place a complete ban on smoking in and and outside the premises, their business would be cut in half.
I used to think I was a pool player and a movie buff. When I started a diet to shed my weight before it killed me, I realized that without the popcorn or trip to Wendy's before/after pool, I really wasn't interested in going out at all.
My story may simply be my own, but it got me thinking that addiction behavior is often paired with other activities that, without the addiction behavior, lose their appeal.

Sorry to hear that Donny. I had a chest xray last week. Not good for me either at this point.
They wanted me to go to emerg right away but I hate sitting there for 6 hrs and then more once they get you a stretcher. The wife is out of town working so I had to stay home and look after the dogs.
All I know is that it hurts like a SOB.
