PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- A group of tourists who ran up the "Rocky" steps got a knockout photo at the top - a selfie with Rocky himself.
Peter Rowe said he and two friends had just finished racing up the staircase at the Philadelphia Museum of Art on Saturday when they saw Sylvester Stallone.

    Not sure why, but this made me smile. What are the odds?

    I saw it on the news this morning and thought it was so cool.

    Too bad the guy is such a anti-2nd Amendment idiot.
Truly he has been hit too many times in the head.

    Figures you’d be admiring of the biggest gun control douche bag in Hollywood.

    That’s cool of Sly. A lot or stars would have had security push them away or charge them for the honor. Bravo Mr Stallone

    Well, we can pick apart any public figure and their stances on issues over the years. Stallone never robbed a freight train and he seems to have made a lot of people happy over the years (me included).

    Rocky I (1976) was decent movie.

    Ironic considering he uses so many guns in his movies.

 Well, pointing out that he is AVIDLY Anti-2nd Amendment isn't "picking apart" Stallone. It's a fact. It's part of Stallone's story, his context, if you will.

    Stallone is short and is sensitive about it. I swear they have to have been filming him from the floor to make him look taller.

    Agree. It would be like wandering NYC in 1980 and seeing Audrey Hepburn gazing into the window at Tiffany’s.

    Nonsense. When he and Adrian are in his apartment, he's playing a song where a synthesizer the size of a room just plays notes higher and higher until it's only discernible to canines. Freaking audio genius, you music snob.

    Stallone is on my list of banished movie stars. He’s a RINO who is for total gun control.
