I ran across this incredible story on Boing Boing, and thought that it should be shared to inspire other kids, young and old. Caine is a 9-year old boy who created his own cardboard arcade right next to his dad’s auto parts store. After only one loyal customer, Nirvan Mullick, fell in love with the fun pass (only $2), he decided to create a flash mob to help build the arcade’s clientele up.
Honestly, the details of this arcade are simply genius, and actually pretty amazing to have come from the mind of a 9-year old boy. He hasn’t forgotten a single detail, and even has security that verifies the fun card before you can play the games. It’s beautiful people like Nirvan who help keeps the dreams alive – especially for one lucky little boy named Caine. If you’re in the Los Angeles area, then go check out Caine’s cardboard arcade. Or see what’s up by checking in with Caine on Facebook or Twitter.
And while you’re at it, say hello to Nirvan, the wonderful filmmaker who not only makes some incredible animations like The Three of Us, but is actively involved in the 1 Second Film project and The Collaboration Foundation.
– thanks Boing Boing for this heart-warming story
