Memphis is a shithole of a city

Biggest piece of shit I have ever been in. Worst/dumbest driving I have ever encountered on a daily basis. It's a dump of a city. Yay for BBQ and Blues but fuck this city.

    I was in Memphis for a week last month. I kinda liked it. Mud Island was a fun day... Imagine DMB on that small stage. Unreal

    Never been to Memphis, so I can't confirm or deny.

    I had a similar idea of Hartford back in May. Shit city, can't imagine being there for winter either. Bad enough during the summer.

    Holy shit, me too. Were you there for Pearl Jam? If I told you of the experience that my buddy and I went through to get beers at a packie, you'd bring the lulz. Needless to say, we tailgated in our hotel room watching a Spike TV marathon of UFC and When Animals Attack.

    HA thats funny/too bad. No I was there N2 for DMB 5/29. I was looking forward for weeks for tailgating all afternoon for my only DMB show this summer. But when I got to the city, I was directed into the 4th story of a parking garage. Nothing like pound 4 beers in the car and walking a half mile to the venue.

    Also, open the door in the parking garage to the stairwell, some fucking chick pissing in the corner. Really? wtf

    Hartford really isn't that nicest city in America or anything but you're going to judge a whole city over one experience in a parking garage? I have seen DMB there about 10 times and had a blast tailgating. Looks like you just found your way into the wrong parking spot. They have great lots there.

    Oh please, Clarksville is the best city in Tennesee. They are right next to Fort Campbell and they have a waffle house, a Cracker Barrel and you can buy beer at the gas station.

    Lived in memphis all my life 21 years. Fucking hate this place and I live in Germantown. It's definitely a shit hole no doubt about it. Everything about it sucks no if ands or butts. The only upside is the rendezvous. If my family wasn't a part of it I wouldve been outta here sooner.
