Default Use existing table to populate a drop down list & create a new tab

OK, here's a simple version of what I'm trying to do. I have this table set
up on a worksheet:

Name: #: Color:
Andy 1 red
Aaron 2 blue
Allison 1 green
Anthony 2 violet
Abdul 2 azul

I want to create a drop down cell that lets me pick one of the values in the
# column. Then, once I pick that, I want a table created below this drop
down cell that is populated with the names and associated colors from the
above table. So, in this example, my drop down cell would have the options 1
& 2 in it. And if I pick 1, then a table would be created like this:

Andy red
Allison green

I know enough to do this piecewise, but my attempts to get this to work
automatically isn't getting anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
