*If you asked former NFLer Chad Johnson if he’s cheap, we bet he’ll say yes. We’re pretty confident in making that bet because of what we know about Johnson: he’s admitted to living inside the Bengals stadium for two years!
Johnson who also went by the moniker, “Ochocinco,” was drafted by the Bengals in 2001 and was in the NFL for 11 years. While other rookies found everything in the world to do with their sudden largesse, Johnson focused on living frugally and developing his game.
“You gotta remember, I stayed at the stadium the first two years because I didn’t want to spend no money,” said Johnson, who’s repeatedly told the story over the years.
“What’s the point? Why are you telling me to go rent a house, go buy a house, or go rent a condo when everything I need is right here in the facility?
“Showers, cafeteria, TV, couch, gaming system. What’s the point? I was so locked in. It wasn’t about having my own space.”
