Philadelphia Weekly

Rocky-Fest

Can you believe it’s been almost 40 years since Rocky Balboa first took his famed jog up the steps of the Art Museum, spawning one of the most iconic film series of all time? To celebrate, South Philly Bar & Grill is once again hosting an all-day Rocky love-fest and movie marathon, giving locals a chance to experience the entire rags-to-riches sports drama in reverse chronological order—even the installments we prefer to forget (Rocky II-V). We’re talking roughly nine straight hours of Sylvester Stallone. Following the screenings, fans can test their knowledge of the films during several rounds of trivia, enjoy various Rocky-themed food and drink specials and maybe even compete in a Rocky look-alike competition. To close it down, DJ Perry Angelozzi will host a special music and video tribute to Philly’s most famous fictional underdog. -Nicole Finkbiner
