1) A diet of snowcones will slim you down in as little time as it takes to drive through downtown Philadelphia to the hospital in an ambulance.
2) Carrying your bride all the way home is great for the arms.
3) Always have sex with a condiminium.
4) In order to find out if your dog is normal or not just look inside "there."
5) Always thank the other boxer for fighting you if you win.
6) A baseball bat is accepted way to great a vistor of your home.
7) Numbers which almost add up to 90 are a good omen.
8) A diet of snowcones and a new job as a loneshark's collector will change an @$$hole into a really nice, supportive and friendly guy almost overnite.

(For those familiar with the Philly area) Rocky's ambulance comes from some unknown location in Delaware County or maybe the airport, even though the fight was supposed to be in Philly, and travels up Broad Street, around City Hall, then back up Broad Street only to get to Pennsylvania Hospital. No wonder he was in such bad shape!

Even if you look a bit goofy and insecure in the ring before the big match, your rival (who really looked like a tough and determined badass) will say later that you had the hunger to win in your eyes ("the eye of the tiger") and that's the reason you've beaten him.

If you're Rocky you can throw 3-4 legit punches (and miss at least 30-40) during the 15 rounds and still won.

If you're Rocky you can also use some illegal moves like pushing your opponent with your hands and head or grab his torso from sideways and shove him back to the corner.

It's a clever idea to shout out fighting tactics to your fighter during the match (like "attack his body!" or "protect your bad eye!"), his opponent won't hear it.
