The 8-foot, 6-inch tall statue of
movie character 'Rocky,' given to the city |
The statue of a triumphant Rocky Balboa is shown across the street from Veterans Stadium in South Philadelphia on May 14, 2002. A push to move the bronze statue to the foot of the Philadelphia Museum of Art steps is on the ropes. The statue, now in storage, was donated by Sylvester Stallone in 1982. The statue is of Stallone in his role as the boxer from the film 'Rocky III.' Veterans Stadium has been torn down since this photo was taken. (AP Photo/Rusty Kennedy) AP - Aug 04 7:51 AM |
