Dan Gross: Buyers for the Khyber?

NO DEAL HAS been reached, but we hear "Real World: Los Angeles" cast mate Glen Naessens and his brother Mike, who owns Eulogy (136 Chestnut), are trying to buy the Khyber (56 S. 2nd), which is mere feet away.

Rumors of the Old City rock club being for sale have swirled for about a year, but nothing has come to fruition. Khyber co-owner Stephen Simons declined to comment yesterday. Simons owns the building and co-owns the bar with Dave Frank. The pair also operate the Royal Tavern, Cantina Los Caballitos and Cantina Dos Segundos. We had heard the Naessens are looking to buy only the club, not the building. "All I can say is that I'm into music, Philly, and history. So is my brother Mike," Glen Naessens, a musician, shared with us yesterday. We traded messages with Mike, but that was it.

Flyers flock to Borgata

The Flyers, just about all of them, dined at Borgata's Old Homestead steakhouse before partying at mur.mur nightclub there Friday. The Atlantic City hotel put up a billboard with a Flyers logo that read "Thanks for letting us all have a little fun this season." The guys loved it.

Luke, Deen are pals

Sandwich mogul Tony Luke Jr. and musician Skip Denenberg hit it off with Food Network Southern belle Paula Deen over the weekend at the Great American Food & Music Festival at the New Meadowlands. The guys worked Deen into a song and played it for her in the dressing room, and then she asked them to perform it during her stage presentation. Tony Jr. and Denenberg also performed the "Cheesesteak Anthem" and later did an impromptu show for rain-soaked foodies in a tunnel near the field.
