Rarely did. I was briefly legal at 18, legal for 6 days at 19, then had to wait two years. However no one really cared back then.

About 10 years ago I got carded at a baseball game. Even worse that’s when I found out my drivers license expired, so they wouldn’t sell me a beer despite my obviously being well over. To get some amusement out of the fiasco, I slipped my 21 year old coworker a $10 to buy me a beer

Pretty much always still am.

Cashiers used to be able to use their judgement and not ask for ID if the customer appeared to be older than 27. But I guess there was some abuse of that, so now they card you even if you're clearly 100. The ABC (alcoholic beverage commission) will even sometimes do stings to see if the cashier asks for ID, and stores can even lose their license to sell alcoholic beverages if they get caught.

When I stopped acting like a little bitch buying booze.

A lot of places ask anyone and everyone to provide ID which I don't think was the case in years past. My wife and I are 40 and we still get carded frequently and I don't think it's because we look underage.

They never really started :(

Cashiers still ask me, but restaurants and bars have not asked me, even when I was just 22.

I always pull it out and stick it on top of the alcohol so they never have an opportunity not to ask. They can get in trouble for not checking id (or they can in my state) so its kinda a polite thing to do.

29 🫠

They still ask.

At my job the computer won't let me finish the transaction until I type in the customer's birthday. I assumed they were all like that.

Around 34 years old when I’d put on some weight and my face finally aged.

I haven’t gotten carded since I was about 35. I have visibly graying hair, a receding hairline, and graying stubble.

22 :(

In my hometown, which has a large state university, they ask everyone no matter what age. Moved to a city about an hour away where there is a small university around age 23 and have never been asked for ID there.

I guess about 30.

I’m 40ish. Hasn’t happened yet outside of the cashiers at my home grocery who know me.

Depends on the place. My go-to grocery store always asks. Convenience stores don't.

Like 32

I'm albino and have had facial hair since I was 13. I think I got asked a few times over the years since turning 21, but it was always rare.

I've been asked a few times but even in my early 20s it was rare to be asked for my ID.

I live near a college town and closer to it, everyone gets carded all the time. Some places must have not done even that well enough because at some places you had to have your id scanned or sign a log swearing it is, in fact, your id.

Outside of that, once I started showing grey.

I have only bought alcohol legally one time. It was at a burlesque show and it was for the MC who was a friend and forgot their money. I was in my late 30s and was not carded.
