Why are incest jokes blamed on Alabama online?

I never heard of anyone doing incest here, that's disgusting.

I never do that. It's illegal in Alabama, Tennessee.

Any place thats really country such as Alabama and the Ozarks makes people seem slow because they speak slowly which is a possible indication of being inbred according to Northern sterotypes.
Same goes for not wearing shoes, chewing on hay and all that other cartoon stuff but there is a bit of truth to it.
More cousins continued to marry one another in rural areas long after it wasn't accepted in the cities.
Look at the book Gone With The Wind. The main guy Ashley was married to his cousin and it wasn't even part of the storyline. That used to be very common.
