FYI, I can't help much, but that area is worse than the quarter. Stay safe, and be vigilant.

I grew up in Memphis and live in French quarter and can tell u that bourbon is def safer. The surrounding areas not actually on bourbon are very dangerous tho so don't wander.

As far as bar, silkys and bardog are my two favorites

Fla St vs Other Tigers at the same time. Start at Bar Dog on Monroe, about 3 blocks from Beale off Main. Gastropub, cool bar. Then, if people bitch and turn the other game on, go back towards Beale and watch it at Flying Saucer, if that's no good for you, walk 3o yards away to the Silly Goose.. no, it's not a gay bar.

You're getting some outdated advice buddy. Platinum plus closed years ago. Beale used to be dangerous but is policed heavily now (as a few posters noted). I don't know of any truly good places to watch the game on Beale street. If you insist on being downtown and nearby - hit Local or Bardog.

The best place to go out in Memphis right now is Midtown - I would strongly suggest Local Midtown to watch the game (tons of TV's with nice couch seating). Then afterwards take a cab downtown to Bardog and cap off your night at Raifords. If you're still standing - make some truly unfortunate late night decisions at 152 on Beale street. Enjoy.
