Growing up, I remember thinking Burgess Meredith would never leave this world, he just seemed invincible, he looked old in the first Rocky and that was in the 70s! I'm pretty sure they killed his role as Mickey in Rocky III because they were certain he wouldn't be around much longer. He certainly proved them wrong by surviving for 15 years after his last appearance as Mickey, excluding flashbacks in the later ones. Throughout the Rocky movies he's given us great inspirational speeches on life which we'll never forget, however, none of them compare to this one from one of the Grumpy Old Men movies where he talks about bacon's role in leading a long, healthy and prosperous life. Definitely a diet to live by:
