abstract:The Redneck Games are held in East Dublin, Georgia annually. The games were started by General Manager for WQZY-FM "Y96"; Mac Davis created this in response to a comment made by the media; it was rumored that when the 1996 Olympic Games went to Atlanta, it would be held by a group of rednecks.
With events like redneck horseshoes (tossing toilet seat covers), watermelon seed spitting and an armpit serenade, the games celebrate all the stereotypes that have surrounded rural Southerners over the years.
