1.Technically, when a person wants to check grammar or verbiage on a statement like this:

“Although me, and the man sitting right behind me, had the best view.”

2.Would you break it into its parts to make sure it is correct; like:

“Although, me had the best view”
And
“Although, the man sitting right behind me had the best view.”

3.Then, see here that “me” is incorrect, and it should be:

“Although, I had the best view.”

4.And, ultimately:

“Although I, and the man sitting right behind me, had the best view.”

5. Or could it be “myself”

You broke it down nicely to see ONE error. The other, which would fix it completely, is that one never mentions oneself first. Thus, the ultimate correction would be:

"Although the man sitting right behind me and I had the best view. . ."

Do note that this remains only a clause and not a complete sentence because of the "although."

No, 'myself' would be incorrect. The 'breaking' apart of the sentence confirms that 'I' is the proper usage.

I do exactly what YOU did, breaking it into parts. "Myself" is wrong...
