Caine's cardboard arcade rules! The Cain'e Arcade block party was a huge success! Watch as my son Jaxon and I journey to East Lost Angeles to join in the flashmob celebrating Nirvan Mullick's short film, "Caine's Arcade". His 11-minute film tells the story of Caine Monroy's DIT cardboard arcade, built in his father's used auto parts store in front a junk yard in Los Angeles.

During the block party, Caine was presented with a $152K check for his college education, crowdfunding that resulted from donations related to the viral video.

To watch Nirvan's film about this DIY kid that inspired a worldwide movement, including a scholarship fund and the Global Cardboard Challenge, and get Caine's Arcarde address, hours and read news articles from the L.A. Times, visit http://www.CainesArcade.com. And you'll see a video that even Jack Black's kids were inspired to build their own cardboard arcade games after visiting Caine's Arcade.

    Dan, you sound like a great dad. Jaxon is a smart and articulate young man. You must be proud. Poor Caine did look a little overwhelmed. I hope they're not tiring him out too much.

    As a matter of fact, when Jaxon got home, with the encouragement of his mother, he started the FB page/group. "Video Game Free Summer".

    This kid is amazing, and I'm so happy that people got that. And in this day and age with all the troubled times, people pour out to support him. THAT is most amazing. This kid had a great idea, used his talent and imagination and one person picked up on it and made him happy. I love this story.
