Chad Ochocinco Fined $30K for TD Celebration, But Won't Stop

Comments (0)

After Cincinnati Bengals receiver Chad Ochocinco scored a touchdown against the Detroit Lions last Sunday, he went to the sidelines, threw on a poncho and donned a sombrero to celebrate. The league didn't like that and fined him a meaty $30,000. Earlier this season, the league fined him $20,000 for pulling out a dollar and pretending to bribe an official after one of his catches was under review. But according to Ochocinco, all the fines just encourage him to keep on doing what he's doing.

"That's okay," Chad told the Associated Press. "They keep jacking them up, I'll keep jacking up the celebrations. I play to have fun. I don't play for the dollar amount. Maybe that's why they take so much money, because they think we play for the money. Maybe they'll get the point -- I play to have fun, not for the money."

The Associated Press listed some of Ochocinco's most memorable celebrations as the river dance celebration, pretending to perform CPR on a football and using the end zone pylon as a golf club. He also once rocked a Hall of Fame jacket on the sideline.
