Ahh the awesome mood altering power of a Rocky poster in Tokyo. The back story of the following picture; Our hero, after throwing up in most every toilet in Japan has been trudging around all of Chiba looking for a Hotel for two men to sleep in. [Side note: a Love hotel will not take two men as guests no matter how much you try and convince them that you are going to their establishment to sleep.]
After walking all day and being unsuccessful by 3am at finding a place to sleep; After being constantly solicited for a "Soothing Massage," we walked past a rather nondescript movie store, only to be greeted by the greatest success story ever told.
How could we give up when Rocky never did! How could we roll over, when after receiving blow after blow from Apollo Creed, Rocky never fell! Did Rocky stop running at the base of the Museum of Art? Hell No!
