The Rocky movie franchise is one of my all time favorites! I have such fond memories as a kid when each new Rocky movie came out and my Dad would let me and my two brothers stay home from school so we could be one of the first to see the new movie.
I was delighted this week to receive an autographed photo from Burt Young who played Rocky's best friend and brother in law, Paulie.
I do, of course, have requests out to both Sylvester Stallone and Talia Shire but don't have high hopes to receive from either as Sylvester is probably way to big a star to sign and I hear that Talia rarely ever signs. But if the day comes when I open my mailbox and find one from either of them I will be tickled pink.
As always I like to provide tidbits of info on the actor because if you walk away after reading my blog learning something new then I've provided a service. (I personally love useless information, it may come in handy if I ever get on Jeopardy)
Did you know that Burt Young is also a painter?
