Ole’s in Paxton
Ole’s Big Game Steakhouse and Lounge in Paxton houses the collection of over 200 trophy mounts collected by Keith County native Rosser “Ole” Herstedt. Ole made a series of safaris over a 35 year period ending in 1973. The facility and collection are now owned by the Tim Holzfaster family.
An interesting historical sidenote: Ole opened the tavern at 12:01 a.m. on August 9, 1933, one minute after prohibition in Nebraska came to an end.
