SAN FRANCISCO – Election Day is over but some people are still feeling the burnout and anxiety that came with it.

They’re finding creative outlets to relieve those feelings, like spending an evening at Bay Area Smash Room.

The election was characterized by polarizing candidates and issues and Alys Landle has some uncertain feelings about the results.

“Not great, not terrible,” said Landale.

She says days later, she’s still carrying some of the weight of the election with her.

“I wasn’t too happy with the results of the election, obviously, but you do what you can,” said Landale. “I think that just being here will let me get out some of the feelings I have.”

So she suited up and headed into the smash room.

Jordan Aban works the front desk, he says Landale isn’t the only person choosing to break things to deal with the results.

“Amongst a lot of things they come here frustrated about I would say the election is something they’ve been frustrated about recently,” said Aban.
