Sylvester Stallone surprised fans on Friday when he showed up in Philadelphia at the statue of his famed character Rocky Balboa.

The actor made time to go back to his character’s old stomping grounds while in the city shooting the sequel to “Creed.”

Stallone, 71, met with Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney for a dedication ceremony for a plaque that the actor said had been missing for the past 12 years.
