Strange........ I grew up in Texas, and even had one grandfather who was a sharecropper farmer, but I never heard the term "redneck" until we moved to Florida, where I heard it used to describe some Floridians and Georgians. Even then, "Cracker" was used just as often to refer to Floridians.
I grew up in Dallas and San Antonio. I guess being in large urban areas makes a difference in what you hear. (I did have a couple of uncles who were Aggies.)
