Let's make this birthday one to remember.

40 years old (Born on May 31, 1985)

Happy Birthday, Ian Vougioukas! To the towering Greek giant who dominated courts from Saint Louis University to international arenas—your opponents still have nightmares about your unstoppable hook shot and intimidating presence under the basket. Rumor has it that even Zeus himself envies your thunderous dunks!

From SLU's Billikens days (2003-2007) where you left defenders dizzy, to becoming a beloved figure in European basketball circles, you've always stood tall—not just because you're 6'11", but due to your unmatched passion for the game.

Here's wishing you another year filled with slam-dunk successes and plenty of laughs along the way. Cheers, big guy!
