== Frequently Asked Questions == {{FAQ |q1=Where is the Rocky Statue? |a1=The Rocky Statue is at the base of the Philadelphia Museum of Art steps, to the right when facing the building. It's not at the top of the steps. The statue is always accessible and free to visit. |q2=Why isn't the Rocky Statue at the top of the steps? |a2=The Philadelphia Art Commission ruled it was a movie prop, not fine art, and didn't belong with the Museum's collection. After years of debate, a compromise placed it at the base of the steps in 2006, where it remains today. |q3=How many steps are the Rocky Steps? |a3=There are 72 steps leading up to the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Thousands of tourists run them daily, recreating Rocky's famous training scene. Bronze footprints mark the spot at the top. |q4=Can you run up the Rocky Steps? |a4=Yes, absolutely. Running the steps and raising your arms at the top is a Philadelphia tradition. There's no fee and no restriction—just join the many visitors recreating the scene. The view from the top is excellent. }}
