Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Guy Fieri bonded over their love for cooking, according to Fieri.
Stallone's friend and sports commentator, Jay Glazer, invited Food Network star and Chicken Guy! founder to his house.
Guy Fieri, the celebrity chef and founder of Chicken Guy!, has a knack for connecting with individuals through the culinary creations he shares.
Fieri revealed in an interview with Planet Chronicle Digital that he was invited to a sports fight at Sylvester Stallone's house and insisted on cooking for the group, which included Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sugar Ray Leonard, Jay Glazer, and Michael Strahan.
Glazer, Fieri's friend, had previously stated that there would be some "heavy hitters" at Sly's house, which referred to A-list stars.
Fieri stated that there would be some heavy-hitters present, including Schwarzenegger, in addition to Sly and Michael Strahan and Jay. He added that meeting Al Pacino was a big thing for him when he got there.
"While cooking with these guys, Sugar Ray Leonard was present, and we were all engaged in a discussion about food. Despite our differing opinions on sports, teams, politics, and music, we all agreed on one thing - our love for food. This shared passion made it easier for us to connect and bond."
Fieri admitted to Planet Chronicle Digital that he was mistaken for the hired bartender during his visit to Stallone's house while filming for Food Network.
Fieri found the situation amusing when he decided to cook for the guys instead of letting Stallone order-in "sandwiches." Before starting to cook, he examined the kitchen and then went behind the bar to examine Stallone's alcohol collection.

"As a restaurant owner, chef, and past bartender, I stand behind the bar to check what's in someone's well. The girl walks in and says, "Lose the jacket." I thought she said, "Do you want me to take your jacket?" But she was really nice and didn't realize what she was saying."
The woman who instructed Fieri to remove his jacket realized her error after witnessing him cooking in the kitchen. Fieri exclaimed, "I've got to tell Sly! It's the funniest story in the world!" despite the woman's request not to disclose it.
"… We might not all agree on the same sports, agree on the same team, agree on the same politics or music. You know what? Everybody agrees on food." — Guy Fieri
Fieri discussed his relationship with his two sons, Hunter and Ryder, during his interview with Planet Chronicle Digital. He stated that he only had one "rule" for them.
Fieri stated that he wanted his kids to follow their desires and that he would support them, even if they needed to do something. However, he added that they had to do something, and that this had been the rule. He then mentioned that he was going somewhere.
Fieri and his wife Lori, who have been together for nearly 30 years, are the parents of two sons. Fieri stated that he is ensuring his youngest son is eating well while he is in college.
"I want my kids to do what my kids want to do. I'm going to back them up. They just have to do something. That was the rule, but you're going to go somewhere." — Guy Fieri
He shared that Ryder's limited space only includes a microwave, so he must devise creative methods to transport his Northern California chili to San Diego State University for his son to relish, despite the distance.
"Fieri explained that Ryder, who is struggling with food, is having a problem with the chili that is being provided through the meal program. He only has a microwave in his dorm, so they are trying to figure out how to get the chili to him."
Although Fieri is a UNLV alum, he acknowledges that he has some rivalry with his youngest son. However, the celebrity chef still praised Ryder's university and expressed his happiness for his son.
"Fieri praised the school, stating, "They're super involved with their students," and added, "It's going to be a great time for him, and he really likes it.""
Fieri and his business partner, Robert Earl, recently opened a new Chicken Guy! location in Hollywood, aside from ensuring his son's well-being in college.

"We were discussing the future, and he asked, 'What kind of chicken can you make?'" Fieri replied, "Well, I probably had more fried chicken than anybody."
Fieri never believed he would open a restaurant in Hollywood, especially one located near his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
With his extensive travel experience and diverse culinary knowledge, Fieri was confident in his ability to create "bomb fried chicken." He also developed unique sauces for the Chicken Guy!
WATCH: Guy Fieri made John Travolta's daughter 'question' his cooking
Fieri tests new menu items on his family before introducing them to his customers, and others also have opinions about his cuisine.
Ella, John Travolta's vegetarian daughter, once questioned Fieri's cooking because she "could not believe" what she was eating did not contain meat.
Fieri recounted the time he prepared vegetarian Bolognese for Travolta and his daughter, stating that he had to demonstrate all the ingredients because the actress was skeptical about the dish's meat content.
