I consider this one enterprising, not dumb, but I actually set up a mini mid-way in my backyard and charged neighborhood kids something like a nickle to get in. Ring toss, knock the bottles over, etc. For prizes, I had a box full of stickers and little plastic toys that I'd accumulated. Damn that was fun.
Other than that, I haven't done much. I've had friends who have done pleanty. One licked a microscope slide smeared with sea urchin sperm for a couple bucks in a high school bio class. In college, there was "Joe Joe the Idiot Circus boy" who on separate occasions ran full speed into a tree for something like $2.50 and slammed a fibreglass polevault pole onto his foot for another few bucks.
