Stephen Curry was doing an interview for Dime Magazine when the subject of Stephen’s youthful appearance came up.
Seeing as how most people in the Bay Area are well aware of who Stephen Curry is and what he looks like, Stephen isn’t usually carded when he buys alcohol, despite the fact he looks like a teenager with an unfortunate beard.
However, that wasn’t the case recently.
It happened at California Pizza Kitchen in the Bay Area like 15 minutes from my house. We went, I tried to get a drink after the season, that’s exactly what happened. Me and my wife went to dinner, and we didn’t have our daughter with us, and she was with the babysitter. So I ordered a beer, and I didn’t have my ID with me, ‘cause I left it in the car and I thought she’d recognize me. So the waitress asks, and I was like, ‘uh, is your manager here,’ and I took my chances with him knowing who I was, and…he knew. But she basically — yeah — she wouldn’t give me the benefit of the doubt, knowing that I didn’t look like I was over 21 and not knowing who I was.
Stephen bore no ill-will to the server as she was just doing her job. After all, it’s entirely understandable why she would card Curry given as the man doesn’t look a day over twenty-years-old.
Seriously, this is what Stephen Curry looked like in college.
And here’s what he looks like now.
The dude might get carded until he’s well into his forties at this rate.
