DYK Sylvester Stallone used to work as lion cage cleaner in zoo?

Before his fame with films like 'Rocky' and 'Rambo', Sylvester Stallone struggled with odd jobs. He shared that he worked as a zoo cage cleaner, but the pungent smell was unbearable. He quit to work at a delicatessen, only to find cleaning the pastrami cookers was an even worse and more hellish job.
