Redneck Riviera??

[Cheering472]

AMEN! I remember years ago when I said I was going to the ocean (panhandle), and was told it's not really the ocean, it's just the gulf. Well, I guess technically it's not, but I will take it over the Atlantic Ocean any day. :clap_1:

Are you kidding me!?! :roll: Once again silly always reveals itself.

And oh yes... Seaside, 30-A, the whole panhandle, is still referred to as the Redneck Riviera and it probably always will be. As long as there are rednecks (aka Southerners) and fried shrimp served in a plastic basket, there will always be a Redneck Riviera.

I disagree...redneck does not "aka" southern. I have observed redneck characters above the mason dixie line. :clap_1:

Agreed.

1/4 of our population in OK. is red-neck...!!!!!;-)

I have a question. I am a transplanted north easterner living in Destin... but still. why would anyone refer to our beautiful area as the 'redneck riviera'? Why would you want to be associated with such a derogatory name? Why would someone be proud to be considered a 'redneck'? In my hometown, that just meant you were poor, uneducated, and toothless. does it mean something else down here?

Oh Biff that's scary and it appears they are out of TP. Perhaps that is what the phone call is about.

HA BWHAAAAAA HA!!!!!!!!

You may be correct; that, or to send another truck full of Bud light and sun screen; looks like he'll be there a while!!!!!

You are so right about that!

Yes the Bud makes sense. From the looks of his tan lines he doesn't use sun screen.

Maybe this photo from Crab Island will help explain the name a little bit.
