There are certain places I actually miss cigarette smell in. Most importantly, bowling alleys. They just aren't the same anymore. It was part of the ambiance.

Did you stop bowling for a while? Over time my idea of "bowling alley smell" gradually shifted to wax, spilled drinks, and well-oiled antique machinery.

I wouldn't change it back. Now it smells more distinctive from everywhere else.

Yes, I did. I bowled a lot when I was younger, I was even on the varsity bowling team at my high school. That was the last time I regularly bowled. Now it's like, once or twice a year.
