You鈥檝e had a bad day at work, you're stuck in traffic, have gotten into a fight with a friend, still can鈥檛 find an affordable apartment or found yet another parking ticket on your car. Sure, maybe the wise thing to do would be to take a deep breath, put it all into perspective and calmly take some time for self-care.
But sometimes, maybe you just really want to smash something.
Multiple Richmond 鈥渁nger rooms鈥� are giving visitors just that opportunity. Operating since last year, is located on Elmbridge Way near Gilbert Road.
鈥淪ome people just want to watch the world burn. While we can't burn anything here (yet), we offer the next best thing: smashing stuff into tiny little pieces,鈥� Smash Therapy advertises.
Smashers can either bring their own box of things to destroy or smash provided bottles and electronics. Prices range from $19.99 to nearly $1000 for a 鈥渓egendary package.鈥�
Exit, a company typically known for its 鈥渆scape room鈥� experiences has also gotten into the anger room game and on Beckwith Road near Highway 99 at the end of June.
鈥淭he anger room is a place where you can bring all of life鈥檚 frustrations and let loose to your heart鈥檚 content,鈥� says Exit. 鈥淭he concept is simple: you smash stuff, and we take care of the rest. Take a swing at the Anger Room, it鈥檚 sure to relieve some stress and put a smile on your face.鈥�
Cost is $30 per person for 20 minutes to smash 10 items. Or, bring your own items for a 20 per cent discount.
Both venues say to wear close-toed shoes and provide protective gear. Visitors must be 18 years or older or, at Smash Therapy, have a guardian.
