Chad Ochocinco may be paid handsomely as an NFL player, but the true windfall for the receiver formerly known as Chad Johnson may just be as a bull rider.
According to the Bengals Post, Ochocinco accepted a challenge from the Lucas Oil Invitational bull-riding event in Atlanta, with a Ford F-150 on the line if he could stay on a bull for eight seconds. Win or lose, Ochocinco would be given $10,000.
He lasted 1.5 seconds on "Deja Blue," earning him a decent $6,667 per second of work.
After his tumble, Ochocinco was nearly trampled by the bull, but he managed to make his escape. See the ill-fated ride below.

Should Ochocinco stick to football? or soccer? or Twitter? or anything but rodeo? Leave your thoughts below.
