A creative response to the new reality created by indoor smoking bans.

I’m pleased to announce the launch of Slant Six’s most recent project, Stepped Out For a Smoke (click the image at left for a larger version).

As more and more cities and states adopt indoor smoking bans, more and more folks are put in the awkward position of having to leave their beverage unattended when they step outside. We recognized a need and responded with these cards, designed to be placed on or near one’s drink to alert bartenders and fellow patrons that the spot in question hasn’t been vacated.

We did this as a fun, creative, and — of course — tongue in cheek response to a problem that isn’t going away.

Early buzz has been good, including a mention at the Baltimore Sun. Help spread the word by using the links below to submit to Digg, Facebook, etc.
