Rocky can’t find a home in Philadelphia

Rocky Balboa StatueA bronze Rocky statue, which was dedicated to the city by Sylvester Stallone in 1982, is having touble finding a permanent home in Philadelphia. Dignitaries from Philadelphia still can’t decide where the statue’s permanent home should be and a campaign to erect the larger-than-life statue at the foot of the Philadelphia Museum of Art steps has fallen flat because snobby museum bosses insist the piece isn’t artistic enough.

Sly himself has been fighting to find the statue a suitable home after learning it had been placed in storage.

Maybe they will change their minds if Rocky 6 does well.

    I don’t know what’s sadder… the fact that there’s a statue, or the fact that it’s in storage. How about a statue of Riddick! Atleast it’d be worth staring at…. got plenty of room on my front lawn ;)

Got something to say?
