Poor Southern farmers are often referred to as "rednecks."
"Redneck" is a word that originated in the South and is used to describe someone who is white, poor and lives rurally. Some people are proud to call themselves rednecks, while others consider it a derogatory term. If you know someone who is a self-proclaimed redneck, there are many humorous gifts you can give him for his birthday.
Branded Tee-Shirt
Many branded tee-shirts can be found online with humorous redneck sayings. Examples include, "All trash no trailer," "Mess with me, you mess with the whole trailer park," "Hug a redneck, we're nicer than you think," "Rednecks only drink beer on days that end in Y" and "Proud to be a Redneck."
White Trash Etiquette Book
The "White Trash Etiquette Book" is a humorous, 208 page book, described as "The definitive guide to upscale trailer park manners." It has sections on connecting with a bondsman, inbred weddings and faking on-the-job injuries.
Party Lights
Another redneck gag gift is a string of party lights made out of beer cans or shot-gun shells. They work just the same as any other string of lights and come in many different styles.
Hillbilly Briefcase
The hillbilly briefcase is made out of an actual large pair of "tighty whiteys." They are sewn together to prevent items from falling out and come with an attached wooden handle that says "Hillbilly Briefcase." If you are able to sew, consider making this gift yourself to add a personalized touch. You can also print "Happy 70th Birthday" on iron-on fabric and attach it to the front of the briefcase.
Redneck CD
Make a mixed CD full of redneck songs. Examples include "Redneck Woman" by Gretchen Wilson, "High Tech Redneck" by George Jones, "Its Alright To Be A Redneck" by Alan Jackson, "Redneck Yacht Club" by Craig Morgan, "What this World Needs is a Few More Rednecks" by Charlie Daniels Band, "Redneck Rhythm And Blues" by Brooks And Dunn, "White Socks And Blue Ribbon Beer" by Johnny Russell and "Redneck Games" by Jeff Foxworthy and Alan Jackson. Print a CD label with the words, "Happy 70th Birthday."
Engraved Redneck Saying
For a more elegant gift with a redneck theme, purchase something the gift recipient will appreciate, such as an elegant pen set or a silver flask, and have a humorous redneck saying engraved on the item along with a line wishing him a happy 70th birthday.
