5. Jed Clampett, The Beverly
Hillbillies
"Come and listen to a story 'bout a man named Jed." If you've got a
honky-tonk theme song named for you, you might be a redneck. Jed Clampett was
the ultimate backwoods rags-to-riches story, mining for black gold and taking
his clan of denim wearers out West to Beverly Hills. Consider him the patriarch
of this list.
