Memphis Area (Things to do?)

[AlexRuzhyo]

There's a couple of threads on the main page about different areas, so I figured I'd ask.

I'll be living in the South Haven/Horn Lake area with a buddy who's been there for a year. He hasn't gotten out much, having basically worked and not much else, and we're interested cheap or can't-miss entertainment or food. Having lived in a dead steel town most of my life, I'm eager to experience new things. Any information on decent bars/dives, local restaurants/food, hobby/game shops, or possible standup comedy scene would be appreciated.

Also, if anything else comes to mind about the area, whatever it may be, throw it out there. I live a ways off of Pittsburgh if that gives any contrast.

Used to work there a lot. Visit the zoo, Beal street, gamble, eat lots of fucking BBQ.
