Um...WHAT DID THEY JUST SAY?!?!

So I'm minding my own business, folding clothes and half watching The Today Show this morning when they mention that it has been 22 years since a man won an olympic gold medal for ice skating when Brian Boitano won it in 1988. Hold up... wait....WHAT DID THEY JUST SAY?!?!......22 years ago?!?! That CAN'T be right!! They MUST be wrong!!! I was 15 years old...22 years ago????  I LOVE the olympics!!! I remember watching him win that medal!!! I...AM...OLD!!!! VERY...VERY...OLD!!! How did this happen?
