68. So I have a story for you:

Many years ago, I was invited out for lunch to a restaurant now gone, Arthur’s Steakhouse on Walnut Street in Philadelphia. Next to me were three men dressed well, and one of the men was very familiar, but I couldn’t place him. Its not like I was I’m eavesdropping on their conversation but eventually I heard him say “OK I’ll do it, but I can’t have any controversial lines because I’m a well-known pitchman in Philadelphia from the 1940s to today for Acme Markets and cannot cannot afford any controversy.” As soon as he said that, I realized that It was a local personality by the name of Gene Crane, who wound up portraying the mayor of Philadelphia during the Art Museum scene with Clubber Lang verbally assaulting Rocky and Adrienne in Rocky III.

Gene Crane’s son is David Crane who produced some notable tv shows. Gene died I think in his late 90’s.
