It was the greatest movie experience of my entire life. People were standing and cheering like they were watching a closed-circuit fight. When "Rocky II" was released two years later, I remember the sheer pandemonium in my theater when Rocky finally defeated Apollo Creed.
I remember listening to the "Rocky" soundtrack in my living room and shadowboxing an imaginary Apollo Creed for 15 imaginary rounds, unfurling jabs and uppercuts, dancing in circles, even punching myself in the noggin to complete the effect. As "Rocky" celebrates its 25th anniversary, the five movies in the saga continue to appear on TV on an almost daily basis.ĭuring the winter of 1976, my father brought me to the theater to see the original "Rocky," one of my first tangible memories as a kid.
