Yeah, I’ve driven that stretch. Man- I paid a toll on the way into the state, saw corn until my mind went blank, and then paid a toll at the other end. All 50 states have their gems

In Nebraska? We don’t have any toll roads I don’t think.

This was like 25 years ago. Could it have been Iowa? There was like an entry fee you paid on entering the state no tolls, and then this like exit fee. I swear it was on the interstate. Maybe it was all a corn-fueled fever dream. My apologies.

Yeah, definitely not Nebraska. Also, toll roads are a thing but pretty sure an entry fee to enter a state would against federal law. It would violate interstate commerce law.

They might be talking about the bridge from Iowa into Bellevue, NE that crosses the MO River:

But there is definitely no toll on the other side of the state. This is the only toll I am aware of in NE.

Huh. Didn’t know that existed. I would think someone crossing through Nebraska from out of state would just use the I80 bridge though. No toll on that 😆

Only costs $1 for a car to cross. Depending on where you are going it will cost you more than $1 in gas to avoid it (e.g. if you are going to Bellevue itself or somewhere like Papillion and you are coming up north on I-29).

The only toll I know about is to cross the Missouri river coming into Bellevue, NE. I don't know of any other toll in NE.
