Really weird draw offer from the opponent.

So I was playing a 30 min rapid game, and the opponent was roughly 150 elo points higher.

 

He played very contained at the opening so I got the chance to pawn storm early and I took total control of the middle of board.

 

It was a weird position and in a total space disadvantage he didn't play too well and was totally losing when he offered me a draw on move 23.

 

 
 I felt it was a very weird draw offer. Why would anyone playing white with an ounce of sense in him take the draw there. So I wrote back "you are kidding right". He resigned after that.
 
His elo really dropped after the game, so I am guessing he was new to this site. New or not, I felt it was a weird draw offer to say the least.

Offering draw is fun at that point :)
