THIS JUST IN: Stallone And The Gang From "Creed" Will Be At The Art Museum Steps Today

NBC – Sylvester Stallone is returning to the Philadelphia steps he made legendary to promote his upcoming installment of the “Rocky” franchise. Friday morning’s news conference at 11 on top of the iconic Philadelphia Art Museum steps will echoed the scene from Rocky III where the “Rocky” statue in Stallone’s likeness was unveiled. Organizers didn’t mention any appearance by Mr. T this time around.

And I’m out! Who’s with me? Haven’t been this excited to go to the steps since those Saints parolees tried to stake claim to the heart and soul of this town. I know, 11am is a little late notice for everyone with real “Jobs”, “Responsibilities” and “Lives”. But tis one of the few perks of turning down healthcare and overall self-worth to be a blogger is that I can literally hop, skip, and jump 5 blocks to the Art Museum to heckle me some Rock like Mr. T in his prime. Wouldn’t mind giving Wallace/Vince Howard a piece of my mind, either. I Smitty the fool.
