James & Diana Arrington- Planholders Since 1978
Favorite Memory: Our favorite memory of being a Bullets/Wizards planholder is meeting friends who have followed the team and discussing the season at other events.
Favorite Player: Our favorite former Bullets player is Elvin Hayes and favorite current player is Gilbert Arenas. Biggest Difference from 1978 to 2008: The biggest difference in the game from the time we became planholders until now has been the move from a more physical brand of ball to the finesse game of the current Wizard players.
Favorite Arena: Verizon Center is our favorite arena- its location downtown, its accessibility and the surrounding city life!
Favorite Memory from the 1978 Championship: One of our favorite memories of the 1977-78 Championship season us when Elvin Hayes stood at center court holding one finger signaling that the Bullets were number 1.


David Earle- Plaholder since 1978
Favorite memory: My Favorite Memory of being a Bullets/Wizards planholder is meeting the rest of the fans and getting to know a lot of them. I have become friends with several other planholders and have even gone out to dinner with them. As a moving company owner I have also got to move a few of them! My company was also honored to do all the moving into the new Capital Center.
Favorite Player: My favorite former Bullets and Wizards players were Mike Bloom, Buddy Jenatte, Wes Unseld, Phil Chenier, and Juan Dixon. My favorite current Wizards players are Gilbert Arenas and Caron Butler.
Biggest Difference from 1978 to 2008: The biggest difference in the game from the time I became a planholder until now is that the uniforms, specifically the shorts are longer and bigger.
Favorite Arena: Out of all the arenas the Bullets/Wizards have played Verizon Center is my favorite.
Best Memory from the 1978 Championship: One of the best memories from the 1977-78 Championship season was when Bobby Dandridge hit the shot from the corner and won the game. I was watching the game on TV in a hotel on the 9th floor and almost jumped out the window!
