Contested prod (article was prodded and endorsed, but prod removed with no explanation by the author). Unable to find any reference to this term, probable WP:NEO / WP:MADEUP CultureDrone (talk) 09:05, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - Google comes up with 33000 hits for "ranch party" - these resolve down to about 750 unique refs. They include a TV series by that name.  The term is in use for parties at ranches - eg here  and here .  Somewhere you can buy "Hidden Valley Original Ranch party dip' - see this link  - or you can make your own 'Ranch Party Mix' - .  There's also a music group (or album title?) 'The Western Ranch Party' - .  Not a hugely notable term, but enough for me.  Springnuts (talk) 11:15, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
