“I’m excited but I’m nervous at the same time. Not sure if I’m ready,” Sanders said.

He manages Street Gamez LLC, a company he created with help from his mother, Tiffany Autumn.

“You can play Nintendo Switch,” Autumn said. “We have TVs inside, all the new consoles, PS5, Xbox. We have all VR. We even have a DJ booth.”

They renovated a school bus making it the ultimate game room for mobile parties.

Sanders had the idea when he looked for something fun to do for his birthday.

“I wanted to do something like that for my 13th birthday party, and I couldn’t find anything that would give a flexible experience,” Sanders said.
