The ROCKY statue was finally returned to the Philadelphia Museum of Art in 2006 with the help and foresight of James (Jimmy) Binns and thousands of Philadelphians. This iconic statue now stands on a grassy knoll adjacent to the famous steps leading to the museum, where visitors from around the globe enjoy it today. In Jimmy’s words, “The statue signifies that anything is possible, so long as you keep persevering. It signifies personal victory, that’s what it stands up for…personal victory.”
