    Yeah, but the law is that they have to card if the person “looks” under 25, and it’s only under 16 that they have to refuse to sell to. He absolutely does not “look” 25, and I think you could make a case that no reasonable person would suspect that someone with a receding hairline is under 16 where they’d have to refuse service, or even under 25 where they are supposed to ask for ID.
