Fun Stuff This Weekend: AC/DC, Basketball Saturday and the Super Bowl

There's a good bit of things going on this weekend in Memphis. Here are just a few of the highlights.

Legendary rock band AC/DC is playing at the FedEx Forum tonight. Reports from other cities indicate that these guys still put on a great show. There should be a nice crowd out Downtown after the show.

For basketball fans, there are two games at the Forum tomorrow. The first is a Conference USA contest between Memphis and Houston. Houston is a decent team that should be a tough contest for the Tigers. After looking at the Cougars performance against Arizona, Memphis may want to consider wearing helmets for this one.




Later in the day, the hapless Grizzlies will host Kobe Bryant, the other Gasol and the rest of the Lakers. This should be an easy win for the Lakers.

As everyone knows, the Super Bowl is Sunday evening. The Steelers are taking on the the Arizona Cardinals. There hasn't been much chatter about the game this week, but this should be a great game. Cardinals win by 4. For those watching the game, remember to pick up some 3D glasses for some of the commercials.
