For those of you who missed the Dancing With The Stars conclusion last night on ABC, Chad Ochocinco was in attendance, but unlike the other season 10 contestants, he did not dance.
All the orignal cast of celebrities were scheduled to dance with their partners during portions of the finale, but Chad watched from a seat in the front row while his partner, Cheryl Burke danced alone. Host Tom Bergeron noted it was due to an injury.
Cincinnati.com later reported that Chad had hurt himself lifting weights.

Luckily, Chad should be back in the line-up in time for the June 15th camp.
