Is it East v. West, or Man Against Man?

In case you hadn't noticed from this, this, or this, I am a little bit obsessed with Rocky. As my friend Dave who recently watched the entire series with me noted, "your obsession is definitely genuine...and a little weird." And as a follow up to my post from December 2007, yes, Rocky V really is that bad.

This past weekend while in NYC I discovered that my bff Chad's roommate is also obsessed! We talked Rocky for a solid hour and then decided to meet up sometime soon in Philadelphia for a Rocky Reality Tour! A few other people wanted to come too, and Chad suggested I create a qualifying exam. So I sent this on and said once they had passed, we could plan the trip.

Anyway, here's the Rocky Quiz. See how you do. Bonus points if you can identify the significance of the post title.

1. What is your favorite Rocky movie and why?
2. What was Sly's inspiration for Rocky (I)? (two possible answers)
3. Identify and name at least one of Rocky's pets.
4. Who does Rocky first fight in Rocky (I)? In what other Rocky movie(s) did/does he appear?
5. Identify at least one character played by a relative of Sylvester Stallone.
6. Name at least one injury Sly received during filming.
7. What is your favorite Rocky fun fact? (the answer "I don't have one" is acceptable)

  1. Thanks Rachel! I didn't even know you had a blog. PS. I love that you love ROCKY so much even though I probably couldn't answer any of those questions.

    Let me know if you're in the Provo area next time. I'll introduce you to the guy!
