Do yourself a favor and watch this. If it doesn't put a smile on your face you must be dead inside.

A 9 year old boy - who built an elaborate cardboard arcade inside his dad's used auto part store - is about to have the best day of his life.

    Aww man, I needed that. I cried like a baby. That was the coolest thing I've seen in a long time. Good to have some faith restored in humanity, y'know? I've seen so much shitty stuff lately (I live in London, Ontario. We're still taking flack from the kids riot on St Patties Day) and this was just a real good perk up. Thanks for the post.

    I was actually about to post this myself....really cool story
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    Boy spends his days at his father's auto parts shop in East L.A.
    Builds arcade games out of boxes
    Sells 'fun passes' for $2 that gets you 500 plays on the games
    Dude goes in one day and is fascinated, decides to make a short film with dad's permission
    Arranges a flash mob type deal to show up at the shop all to play the boy's games and they have tons of fun
