Just about everyone can relate to the feeling of being so angry that you want to break something, and now people who live in Dallas have a place where they can do just that.
It’s called THE ANGER ROOM! It’s located in a city strip mall and has things like TVs, office furniture and glassware for people to smash. Customers choose how much time they want to spend in a room and pay accordingly.
The 5 -minute "I Need a Break" session costs $25, the 15-minute "Lash Out" is $45, and the 25-minute "Total Demolition" goes for $75.
Customers, who are outfitted in hard hats and protective goggles, also get to pick the music for their smash session, and can get a videotape of the experience to take with them. They are allowed to take in objects like a baseball bat or golf club to do the smashing, but more dangerous things like chainsaws or machetes are banned.
And if you think this is just a testosterone-driven guy thing, think again. The founder of the business is a 30-year-old woman named Donna Alexander, and at least half of the clientele are female.
What do you think of the idea of this business? Would you pay for a session in The Anger Room?
Let me tell you now, I WOULD NOT!
I cry, fuss, pout but do NOT break things! I don’t get it…but, business is brisk!
How about you?
