Kent Broussard, a retired accountant in his mid-60s, fulfilled a lifelong dream by enrolling as a freshman at Louisiana State University (LSU) to join its famed Golden Band from Tigerland. His journey began in 1968 when he first saw the band perform as a child. Though he played the sousaphone in high school and college, life led him down a different path—career, family, and eventually retirement.
