Young People Who Look Like Old People


One of the worst things about growing older is having to surpass professional athletes in age, all the while remarking how it's impossible they can be actually younger than you. Marcos Baghdatis, who has reached the final round of the Australian Open, is a case in point. Am I blind, or being silly, or does this man look like he's at least 30?

There's only one way to find out: to lighten things up, we will play our first Wash Av Huffy Crew contest. Without cheating, post in the comments section what you think Mr. Baghdatis' age is, without considering the fact that you now know him to be quite young. The winner will receive the prize of an automatic "I'm in full agreement!" by myself in the comments section when s/he posts next.

Also, if anyone can think of anyone ridiculously young that looks absurdly old, please let me know.

I'm going to say 19, based on his unusually large feet, which he will grow into by age 22. Also, is anyone sensing a major case of "Dick Cheney-pants" in this picture? Teenage girls the world over, squeal now!
