    Yeah.. Drexler stands out like a MOFO... One time I saw him at a movie theater, you could pick him out from the crowd a mile away.

    Hey, does anybody know what happened to Drexler's BBQ? It's building appears to have been taken over.

    That's not terribly specific. Did it get bought out? Went out of business? Moved? What?

    I see a tall black man from far away and a tall black man from a bit closer. JK I would've known that was Drexler even without a hint. Look at him dressed like a consummate professional in his polo and slacks with a slight hunch. Trademark Drexler.

    I work in UH and saw him several times over the course of a few years. You'd think a guy like would get hounded by autograph seekers, but no, he's just standing there in an elevator like the rest of us, or just walking carefree to E.Cullen like everyone else.

    I never said hi to him though, even when I was right beside him. For some reason I don't believe in oogling celebrities.

    Well, that's UH for you. Hard to stop a guy for an autograph when you're late for work and parked 30 minutes away!

    Nick Van Exel bought it out and is opening his own restaurant there called The Groove.

    You are not missing much, but I believe he still has the BBQ joint in the E Terminal at the airport.
