The Bill Clinton Kid at The Game Awards literally stole the show at the final moments, just right after the awarding of the Game of the Year award to Elden Ring. It was a hilarious sight, so of course, Twitter folks were fast in reacting to this very unusual and absurd event.

During closing moments of The Game Awards, the Bill Clinton Kid, who somehow gotten past through security and walked with the developers of Elden Ring as they went up on stage to receive their Game of the Year award, took to the microphone and spouted some nonsense about nominating former US President Bill Clinton for the award.

“I want to nominate my reformed orthodox rabbi Bill Clinton for this award. Thank you.”

Bill Clinton, as far as we know, has nothing to do with the gaming industry, and we're not sure if he plays video games, but we're willing to bet he doesn't. That's why everyone knew something was off when the kid mentioned the former US President.

It was an offbeat moment that everyone on stage took gracefully, but it was a moment that could have gotten worse had a more dangerous person gotten up the stage with them with security not noticing.

Either way, the Bill Clinton Kid drew a lot of reactions on the internet, especially on Twitter, which even led to Bill Clinton trending alongside #TheGameAwards. Moments after TGA Presenter and Founder Geoff Keighley's tweet confirming the prankster's arrest, Twitter blew up with reactions from people, like the ones below:

And of course, there are others who took to memes to make light of the situation.
