Default HELP!!! Removing rear brake rotor

I cannot for the life of me get the rear brake rotor off. Calipers are off, but it won't budge. Am I missing something? Is it BFH time? LOL

1: Make sure parking brake isn't set.
2: If parking brake isn't set, BFH.
3: If there is a hole around the lug pattern (I haven't looked at my own or had to change them yet) and is threaded, run a bolt through that hole. It'll push the rotor off of the hub.

FWIW -- If the calipers are off, I wouldn't expect the parking brake to be an issue. Sometimes smacking it a few times at different points with a rubber mallet will free it up.
