Ochocinco Clause Is Coming to Cincinnati Sunday

Chad Ochocinco is, obviously, notorious for end zone celebrations. He's also notorious for circumventing the NFL's "law" and keeping his team out of on-field trouble at the expense of his wallet.

This Sunday, should he score, he will be doing something off-the-wall that also benefits the city of Cincinnati. Or at least a lucky Bengals fan or 2,000.

The Ocho revealed Thursday that if he scores a touchdown against the Chiefs on Sunday he'll throw a pinata into the stands filled with 2,000 dollar bills. Since it will be behind the bench and not in the end zone, he won't cost the team 15 yards. And, he says, since he won't take it into the bench area, he doesn't think the NFL can fine him, either.

"That's what happened with the sombrero and pancho," he said of the $30,000 fine earlier this month. "It's just going to be there. That's my story."

"That's my gift for Christmas," he said.

One potentially huge problem to this awesome idea comes in the form of a semi-riot: given the opportunity to beat a paper-maché, Christmas-themed piñata for the chance at $2,000, most people are going to be quite, ahem, excited. What happens if someone gets hurt?

Odds are pretty good that the Bengals will at least have some security around the bench area, but should they want to avoid incurring the serious wrath of El Rog (who will only focus on Ochocinco's personal cash flow), they'll probably want to make sure the process for distributing the two grand is safely proctored.

Having said that, this is an awesome idea if it works out to the point that people in Cincy are getting a bunch of free money from one of their favorite athletes.
