Andre Agassi was one of the most influential figures in tennis, especially in the 90s. His heroics were not just limited to his on-court excellence. He wasn’t quite the best player of his era, as his achievements were overshadowed by compatriot Pete Sampras. However, whenever it came to stealing the show off-court, Agassi would never back down.

Recently, an old picture of Agassi resurfaced on social media. It was taken more than 30 years ago and Andre Agassi was almost unrecognizable. The fans on Reddit dropped some of the funniest reactions to Agassi’s rockstar look.
