“Odd”ities – Redneck Games Props

Originating in East Dublin, Georgia, this totally real thing has taken off across North America and has been copied in Maine, California, and even Saskatchewan! A day celebrating the blue-collar hill folk stereotype, the Redneck Games feature events such as toilet seat throwing, mud pit belly flop, seed spitting, the cigarette flip, and armpit serenade.

As ridiculous as it may sound to some of you KIA-driving, non-jort-wearing, keep-your-money-in-a-bank types out there, these games are a big deal! And as we’ve proven before here at SBD, we enjoy slapping odds on all games, beer bellies or not.
