The South Side thing has its points but the Downtown Parade is the main event. The only thing that could be problematical is finding a pub that isn't crowded. You've got Grace O'Malleys, Fado, Kitty O'Shea's (which I hear is in peril of closing in spite of it being in a major hotel and facing on Michigan Avenue)...I'm just trying to think of all the places Downtown or South Loop...there's the Duke of Perth and the Hye Bar but they're North on Clark Street...let's see what looks good, crowded though they may be.
