A timeless NFL draft tradition that fans look forward to more so than players are awkward moments that are observed during draft parties.

Whether it is CeeDee Lamb grabbing his phone out of his girlfriend's hand, Russell Wilson's ex-girlfriend getting a little too excited or Isaiah Wilson's mom pulling his girlfriend off of him after he was drafted, there have been plenty of awkward moments throughout the years.

Unfortunately for former Texas Longhorns star Kelvin Banks Jr., who was taken with the No. 9 pick in the draft, this year's awkward moment goes to him. While it wasn't as bad as the others, it just so happens to be a part of parenthood.

As he and his girlfriend, Demetria Bolden, were celebrating the big news, their infant child ended up vomiting in her arms.

A moment that fans are certainly having fun with.

"He found out his dad will be teaming up with Derek Carr," wrote one fan.

"Done made him spit up his milk," added another.

"I’d throw up too if I was drafted by the Saints," joked another.

While a little vomit isn't ideal during a draft celebration, the fact that Banks ended a long streak for the Longhorns is a nice consolation.

Banks became the first Texas offensive lineman to be drafted in the first round since Mike Williams in 2002. Although he was initially committed to Oregon, Banks ended up flipping to the Longhorns and starting from the moment he set foot on campus. He instantly became the anchor of Texas' line, which is something the Saints should be expecting as well.
