* Real-Life Example / {{Defictionalization}}: The city of Philadelphia has embraced the ''Rocky'' series so much, that the statue from Rocky III ''actually exists'' outside of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Adrian Balboa actually has a real grave in Philadelphia too, out of respect for the character. (Talia Shire is still alive and well as of this writing...)

** Another example is when UsefulNotes/MuhammadAli, when he could have been furious of himself being obviously parodied as Apollo Creed in the original film, appeared on the 1976 Oscars to do a comic little confrontation with Stallone to make it clear to the world that there are no hard feelings. [[TheKnightsWhoSaySquee The sheer, unbridled delight]] on Stallone's face when he sees Ali out there on stage is the stuff of legend.
