Do you ever get so frustrated, angry or stressed out that you just want to... smash something?
Now it's possible in a warehouse in Springfield.
Smash Pit opened recently at 7701 Southern Drive, Suite C13 — the warehouse is just southwest of the I-395/Beltway Mixing Bowl.
Smash Pit provides participants with items to smash, safety equipment and a choice of tools. Sturdy, closed-foot shoes are required for obvious reasons. And there's a waiver.
Participants must be over the age of 14 (ages 14 - 17 must be supervised by a parent or guardian). Smash sessions range from 5 to 25 minutes and cost $20 to $65.
"Life can be messy and difficult. Feeling stressed and frustrated is a natural experience," according to the website. "Smash Pit is a fun, exciting way to relieve stress and let off steam. We provide mock room setups where you can destroy objects. Smash Pit is perfect for birthday parties, ladies night out, date night, team building, or just because! "
