Where the real country venue and it's tradition meets great country music entertainment.  It doesn't matter whose playin', we book only the best acts and the party is always on. 

We have to apologize for one thing, we don't do gimmicks....just keep it real.....so no mechanical bulls, one night a week country or corporate strip mall country here. 

The story of The Wrangler . . . . 

Before The Wrangler was the little hot spot it is now, it was a little like The Old Wild West out on Grant Line Road.  Carter Grocery and Gas was the original business in the 40's and 50's before The Wrangler was ever conceived.  It became The Wrangler in the late 50's and through the early 60's.  The Wrangler was considered "The Cowboy" bar while across the road where the existing Steele building is, a portion of that building was free-standing and called The Ponderosa....and at the time was considered "The Indian" bar.  If you were not with an Indian when you went in there, you were not going to go in there without getting in a fight.  It was visa versa for a Native American walking into The Wrangler.  The stories of the rivalry between the two bars grew as one legend of a local Ponderosa regular was shot by The Wrangler regular in the 1960's right between the eyes with a small caliber hand-gun and lived to tell the tale.  Inside The Wrangler, you will see the old bullet holes to your immediate right when a bartender at the time shot 6 times at some fellas that were causin' problems back in the early 70's.....fortunately nobody was hurt....the bullet holes are still there.  After The Wrangler was Casey's Pizza until 1969 when Fred Spiva started The Y-not....it was The Y-not for 37 years until it became The Wrangler again....we just brought back the name cause we liked it.  The walls are lined with memorabilia from regional businesses and ranches.  Thank you for coming to what we believe is one of the last true and real country bars with Live Entertainment on the West Coast.  If you can't have fun here, you might have a little thinkin' to do.

More News

i5 Radio is coming soon!

(Real American Country)

That's right Sacramento, there is a radio station coming out that is not going to play the bee-bop bubble gum country, talentless country and one that supports California's talented independent country artists regularly and their originals.

They won't start playing music one way to hook you, then end up like all the other radio stations.....just artists like Merle, Randy Houser, Reba, Dwight, King George, Terri Clark, Wreckless Kelly and Dierks. 

It won't be traditionally programmed country radio, but we like it. It will have a little rock 'n roll.  Can you say Journey, Metallica, AC/DC, Led Zeppelin and Def Leppard?  Not a lot, but RNR will definately make an appearance five or six times a day at the right time.   

The Wrangler has seen what makes people's toes tap and what makes them get on the floor and this station has that...it's why we believe in what they're doing.  Keep your eyes open West Coast.....it all starts with a talent show at The Wrangler on Monday Nights.
