A staple of Philadelphia sports history is “Rocky.” The Star of the movie franchise, Sylvester Stallone is auctioning off more than 1,400 items/props from his time filming the series. A portion of the proceeds will go to charities for U.S. veterans and wounded servicemen. ESPN’s Arash Markazi recently tweeted out some of the items being auctioned off.
