Norman Richard "Rocky" Farr (born April 7, 1947, in Toronto, Ontario) is a former professional ice hockey goaltender. He played nineteen games in the National Hockey League with the Buffalo Sabres, accumulating a record of 2-6-3.

He became the NHL property of the Montreal Canadiens and played junior hockey with the Montreal NDG Monarchs, Montreal Junior Canadiens, London Nationals, and Oshawa Generals from 1963 to 1967. Turning pro in 1967, he was buried in the Canadiens' system until 1970.

In that year he was chosen by the Buffalo Sabres in the 1970 NHL Expansion Draft. It was not until 1972-73 when he got into a game for the Sabres. In that season he also helped the Cincinnati Swords win the Calder Cup. He was the backup to Dave Dryden with Buffalo in 1973-74 and 1974-75 but was sent back to the minors when the Sabres accquired Gerry Desjardins. He played sparingly in the minors in 1975-76 and then retired.
