Capital One Arena is home to the Wizards, Capitals and the Washington Mystics women's pro basketball team. The planned sports book, operated by William Hill, will offer food and drinks alongside betting. "Not only will people be able to go and bet over the counter, but you can bet on your mobile phones anywhere within the arena," William Hill CEO Joseph Asher said. William Hill, founded in 1934 in Britain, established its gaming foothold in the U.S. in Las Vegas about seven years ago.
