Former Bengals star Chad Johnson says he plans to attend KKK rally
Former NFL wide receiver Chad Johnson doesn’t appear to be happy that he wasn’t invited to a Klu Klux Klan rally scheduled for Saturday in Dayton, Ohio.
Damn no invite❓ https://t.co/TypsV3paf6

Ocho Cinco made it known via Twitter that he may show up anyhow.
The former Cincinnati Bengal lifted up his ex-team while throwing shade at the in-state rival Cleveland Browns in a Tweet that said he intended to show up at the rally to “sign autographs.”
“…they have to be Bengal fans so I’d assume they’re fans of mine, I’m going to this rally to sign autographs…”

Given Johnson’s brash playing style and on-field antics, he seems audacious enough to cash in on his declaration.
Seems like a good idea, right?
Or as the online publication Total Pro Sports described the crowd he plans to visit: “Let’s be honest, there are likely a bunch of racist people who watch Black dominated sports, cheer them on, all while secretly or openly hating their very esistence.”
Yeah, a great idea.
