Yo, Adrian! Is This The Ultimate Philly Selfie?
Tourists doing an obligatory run of the "Rocky steps" found Rocky himself.

They were in town hitting all obligatory Philadelphia tourist spots. They got cheesesteaks. And of course Pete Rowe and his two friends were going to run the “Rocky steps” at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
Running up the steps, as Sylvester Stallone’s character famously did in “Rocky,” has become one of Philly’s must-dos for thousands of visitors each year. But when Rowe and his friends got to the top, they had the surprise of a lifetime.
“When they got to the top, someone said, ‘You guys got up here pretty fast; you’re making me look bad!’” Rowe’s father, Rick, wrote on Facebook, sharing a photo of his son and his friends with Stallone himself.
