Sapp Bros. Travel Centers Celebrates 40th Anniversary

CSNEWS wrote:On June 7, 1971, Sapp Bros. Travel Centers opened its first truck stop and travel center on 52 acres at the intersection of Interstate 80 and U.S. Highway 50 here. Over the years, that one store has turned into a chain of 16 located in eight different states. Now, Sapp Bros. is celebrating its 40th anniversary.

I thought it was older than that.

The actual Sapp Brothers gave a great interview on Grow Omaha a few months ago.

They actually got their start in Truck Stops because General Motors told them that the land they purchased was too far outside Omaha for a dealership...
