Ear-splittingly loud busker, age ELEVEN, who raps deep into the night infuriating DC residents is linked to NHL and NBA teams’ move to Virginia because CEO was so infuriated by noise from his nearby office

The billionaire owner of the NHL and NBA teams in Washington, DC has decided to move their home base to Virginia, apparently because of a child’s loud rapping.

Ted Leonsis announced last month that he will move the Washington Capitals and Washington Wizards from their current home – Capital One Arena in downtown DC – to a newly developed arena in the DC suburb of Alexandria, Virginia.

Virginia state lawmakers have approved funding and plans to build an arena in the city’s Potomac Yard Neighborhood, according to the Washington Post.

Despite the mayor announcing $500 million in funding for the renovation of Capital One Arena, many believe the reason for the movie is due to the blaring loud music outside his office caused by a man and two children.

Despite the mayor announcing $500 million in funding for the renovation of the Capital One Arena, many believe the reason for the movie is due to the blaring loud music outside his office caused by a man and two children.

David Halmon, his 11-year-old son J-Money and his other son performed in front of the arena at a deafening volume, using a pair of speakers and an amplifier, causing problems for residents and businesses in the area. the past seven years.

Howard Marks, who lives in an apartment building in the area, told the WashingtonPost that he paid more than $6,000 to soundproof his unit.

Before he decided to do so, he said he and his partner “could barely watch TV or barely talk to each other without raising our voices.”

However, Halmon told the Post that “they tried to run us out” and that Leonsis had offered him a deal “not to be here,” but he did not agree.

The children’s rapping can be heard not only on the street, but also within the walls of nearby buildings

In early December, the father was arrested and charged with possession with intent to distribute cocaine.

He was sent to prison for a few weeks and pleaded guilty to a drug possession charge, which locals described as a ‘period of welcome rest’.

He was sentenced to 90 days’ probation, but by late December the street shows had resumed.

In June 2020, Maryland State Police charged Halmon with a criminal summons, including charges of disturbing the peace and disorderly conduct.

One complainant told police at the time that the “music was so loud he couldn’t hear himself think.”

As a result, Halmon was placed on six months’ unsupervised probation.

Leonsis began to become “frustrated with the area around the arena. He was particularly bothered by street musicians, who over the years played loud music outside his office.

His company denies that the loud noise is the reason the company decided to move

According to the Post, Leonsis “began to become frustrated with the area around the arena. He was particularly bothered by street musicians, who over the years played loud music outside his office.

But Leonsis’ company denies that the loud noise is the reason the company decided to move.

Monica Dixon, Monumental’s president of external affairs and chief administrative officer, said the fuss “never played a role” in the company’s decision to explore a move to Virginia.

‘That is completely incorrect and we completely reject any inference implied from it. “Ted has been and will continue to be very supportive of downtown music,” she said.

Monumental’s lease for the building expires in 2027 and the move is planned to take place in 2028.
