Originally, a Bama was a southerner (from Alabama, for instance) trying to blend in up north, but was so obviously country that it didn't work.
Now it's more general and just means something funny-looking, unsophisticated or country as hell.

A short term for Alabama. The way many Alabamians actually refer to their home state.
A great place to live, filled with people who are kind, hard working, and helpful. It's often insulted by movies and television shows that depict Alabamians as good-for-nothing white-trash, when in all reality, Bama's full of very intelligent and talented people.
