Gus the parking attendant

Gus is a minor character who appears only in Chapter 2 of the Complete and Uncut Edition of The Stand by Stephen King. Balding and paunchy, it is his job to collect the one-dollar fee from people parking on the Ongunquit, Maine beach, unless they have resident stickers, in which case, parking is free. He recognizes the Volvo Frannie Goldsmith drives and is friendly with her, as she is a regular.
