For Bruce Brown, the world’s view of the biggest thing out there was never a guiding light for him.
So when it came to selecting which college he would attend, the 1971 graduate of Ben Franklin High in New Orleans didn’t do what was expected of him.
His father Max, mother Dorothy and older brother Max all went to LSU.

Very cool.
I did not know about Bruce Brown's induction when I mentioned his book earlier in the week.
By the way, it's, been 43 years since "Prides of Acadiana" I think it would be perfect of Bruce to do a follow up
Prides of Louisiana
Ragin' Cajun Greats
Bruce is a prince of a man.

I'd like to know for how many years.
Very dedicated sports writer.

He had a way of advocating without being agitating.
I was a part time staffer for them for a couple of years. The sports staff at the Advertiser was loaded with talent. Bruce, Foote, Jonas Breaux, Pete McEntegert (later with Sports Illustrated), David Friedlander... our local sports coverage was insanely good.
