"so why the drunk texts"
because one day he may have the need for sex and he's keeping is options open with you.
I suggest that you block his number. end of problem.

For the same reasons ex girlfriends send drunk texts. It's nice to know you're in demand and have options in case the one you're with doesn't pan out.
Like Honeypie said, he's just making sure you're still a viable temporary back up plan.
Block and delete.

you have been giving great advice, please just block him, dont allow him to mess with your head any longer, it is not fair to you. I think you are holding on to hope that when he is drunk he thinks of you and not her, but my guess is that she is not around so he is trying his luck with you. Don't be anyone's second best.

Block him? It would make the most sense if you are trying to move on and he keeps wheeling you back in.
You can't really "blame" him for trying, can you?
My guess is he is hoping for a little booty-call on the side here and there. That is why he keeps you "interested" by calling out of the blue, so you won't forget him and IF his new GF doesn't work out... he can fall back with you till he find "better" (not saying that you aren't good enough, but if you two broke up and HE moved on then obviously he ISN'T looking at you as a SERIOUS long-term partner.)
So your BEST bet would just be to block him. IT will give you peace and quiet on that front. And there REALLY isn't a good reason to keep in touch otherwise, is there?
