Meet the Business Owner

Cary and Kim C.

Business Owner

Cary had always wanted an arcade or two in their basement. As soon as they finished their basement in 2010, he found a Gauntlet arcade. Gauntlet sat in Kim and Cary’s living room for a few weeks before making it to the basement. Then he found the next arcade, and the next, and before long (a little over a year) there were 16 arcades in the basement, two or three in the garage and a Crazy Taxi in their living room.

Next, the dream of opening an arcade: Cary woke in the middle of the night in September of 2012 and vowed to open an arcade. Kim was happy to know she’d have her basement back one day. A lot of blood, sweat and tears went into getting the arcade set up and hauling the arcades out of their basement.

Cary and Kim are high-​school sweethearts. They began dating in 1991 and were married in March of 2000. In March of 2002 they welcomed their first child. Fast forward to 2013, they have 6 kids, three girls and three boys. Cary works a full time job during the week and
