A couple of things that are going on there. This past Sunday a film crew was there getting footage for a documentary on the Woodward Cruise and car collecting in general. Next week they come back to do interviews. On July 10 one of the big car collector magazines (can't remember the name they said) is scheduled to come in for a feature on Baker's.

Drew and Mike haven't played that drop in a while. They must be too busy talking about Pistons/Michael Jackson/Runaway Bride/American Idol.
