    Darts probably

    most sports require some aerobic capacity - if you smoke you're basically saying "f-off" to your lungs and therefore your sporting abilities.

    What type of smoking are you referring to? I like smoking a bit of reefer and playing tennis. It makes you zoned in, much like video games.

    If you're talking about cigarettes, you will actually find that once you get into an exercise regime and become fitter, you'll want to smoke less, because you will feel how detrimental it is.

    Golf would be one option. And since you are used to spending tons of money on smoking, the cost of a round of golf may not faze you, either. :)

    I'm a smoker and I play chess (I consider this more of a mind game than a sport. LOL). Back in high school, I placed 4th, which is a win short to get to nationals :(

    I am an ex-smoker, smoked for 22 years then ditched the filthy tobacco in 2008.

    I was an active chess player (varsity player) during school days and this sport does not ban you to smoke, unlike other sports especially basketball. My friend got kicked out from the team because he was caught by his coach smoking one time.

    But for chess, during practice, me and my coach smoke a lot while playing.

    But before I go, I would like to advise you to quit. Trust me. It's so worth it!

    You have no time for your health? Pointless having a lot of money if you won't get to appreciate it.

    everyone should be afraid when they think about smoking. Disgusting habit and horrific health consequences.

    First quit smoking and then play sports, but smokers can be good at plenty of sports like snooker, chess etc...

    I always liked pool in the sports bars. Nice quick game, modest stretching and plenty of time to relax. You can grab a bite to eat, drink, etc. there fun! ;-)
