Does This Man Look Like A Fraud To You?

Here's an odd photo of a person who appears to be Alex Rodriguez, nuzzling what appears to be an older Dakota Fanning from a 1998 Florida State sorority event.

It could be a photo-shopped head or just an eerie resemblance, but it seemed like an interesting image given all the talk about A-Fraud thanks to the Torre book. 1998 was the year that 23-year-old Alex Rodriguez hit 42 home runs and stole 46 bases, forging his path to greatness. Yet, he'd still go to this party, presumably as someone's date. Hmm. I wonder if everyone at Pi Beta Phi was summoned to go get him a peanut butter and jelly before the night was over?
