Ranchman's Cookhouse and Dancehall, the iconic country bar that's been home to line dancers and mechanical bull riders for nearly 50 years, is up for lease. We hit the trails with country music star Paul Brandt to see the most meaningful places in Calgary to him. Here we visit Ranchman's, where he got his first big break. 2:31It was named Country Club of the Year sixteen times by Canadian Country Music Association, and launched the careers of artists like Paul Brandt. For tens of thousands of patrons each year during the Calgary Stampede, Ranchman's was a must visit — to learn line-dancing, listen to live country music, eat beef on a bun, or ride the mechanical bull.
