"Rocky" Still Rules
Rocky Statue Rivals Taj Majal, Tower of Pisa
A Slate.com ranking of the most "tacky" (and most popular) tourist photos includes our very own Rocky statue. Folks like to pose, arms raised, next to the figure of Stallone in his classic pose. Sometimes they like to dress Rocky in matching shirts.
Other top photo cliches -- pretending to kiss the Sphinx, hold up the Taj Mahal, or provide a counterweight to the leaning tower of Pisa.
Looming rival to Rocky -- there is a statue of Bruce Lee in Hong Kong that is fast becoming the Rocky of Asia.
