A visit from London and a Hall of Fame basketball player

On Tuesday June 19th, Katie's good friend and college roommate, Shannon, was in town visiting from London.  She lived in Chicago right after college and then moved to London a couple of years ago, so we don't get to see her as much as we use to and we jumped at the chance to see here while she was in NYC.  We met her for dinner at place called Clyde Frazier's Wine and Dine near Penn Station at 10th and 37th Ave.  Clyde Frazier played basketball for the Knicks back in the 1970's and now he is an announcer for the Knicks.  They always play advertisements for his restaurant on TV during the Knicks games, so we thought it would be a good spot to meet Shannon.
It was great catching up with Shannon especially since we had not seen her since Katie has been pregnant.
The food was really good and the restaurant had a nice posh yet sportsy vibe to it and to top it all off, Clyde the man himself was there.  The NBA finals were on TV that night, so he seemed to be enjoying himself by the bar watching the game and greeting fans.  So of course, we had to go get a picture with him.  He was very nice and didn't seem bothered at all with people taking pictures with him.
