INDIANAPOLIS (NBC) -- The menu hasn't changed nor has what's on tap but the Slippery Noodle in Indianapolis, Indiana does have a different air about it.
The state's oldest bar has gone smoke-free.
Smokers can smoke in the tent or on the patio, but not anywhere inside, not even in the back room.
Call it a sign of the times and a sign of the Super Bowl.
Once the Slippery Noodle snuffed out smoking several other well-known bars were quick to follow.
The decision by the bars comes as the city debates a tougher smoking ban and legislators, a statewide ban.
The patrons of the bar might be thinking differently.
"I see people not wanting to breathe the smoke, but I also see those who want to smoke and should be able to in a warm dry place," said Brian Gulh of Indianapolis.
Bar managers predict they'll gain more customers than they lose.
They also think other bars will follow their lead.
