Central Nebraska service center sells discount gas for President Trump's inauguration

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) – A central Nebraska service center made an impactful statement Monday, selling discount gas for President Trump’s inauguration.

Palser Service Center in Central City sold gas for .47 cents per gallon, honoring Trump as the 47th President of the United States.

Elliot Grosshans, the owner of the gas station, said about 80 cars showed up, with the line wrapping around the corner and leaking onto the highway.

The gas station sold out of gas in about two hours, according to Grosshans.

At the end of the day, Grosshans lost about $10,000, but he said it’s more important to leave a lasting impression in his community.

“Giving back to my community is way more important than money ever will be,” said Grosshans. “I lost thousands of dollars today, but bringing the community together like this was a lot of fun and very rewarding. This was one thing I could do to give back to the community, save people some money and show support for our 47th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. Being a proud American, I am excited for what the future holds for our great country!”
