Best Bars off Cumberland, but still within stumbling distance of Neyland

Seeing the flop of that last thread:

What are the three best bars in Knoxvegas downtown, Old City, Fort Sanders, and the Strip.

I hear good things about Cube in terms of scenery...

True or false?

I like Big Daddy's in the basement of Volunteer Studios. There's never anyone there, so a few friends and I go and play darts and drink.

I've been going there since the day they opened. I consider Herschel a friend. We've held a couple of Super Bowl parties there. That said, there is absolutely nothing Irish about MacLeod's.

That's an even better reason to never go to Cool Beans than the epicly lame name. The last thing I want are a bunch of mammary challenged bow heads buzzing around me.

Yes the name is terrible. I was disgusted immediately upon arriving in Knoxville as a freshman. However, by the time you are a senior, you realize that most of the hot UT girls tend to hang out there. A lot of other Knoxville bars are virtually devoid of hot women.
