Actor and comedian Tracy Morgan reassured fans that he is okay after falling ill during Monday night’s Heat-Knicks game at Madison Square Garden. Morgan shared on Instagram that he had food poisoning, causing a delay in play while workers cleaned up the area around his seat. Despite the interruption, the Knicks went on to win the game 116-95.
Morgan, known for his humor, joked on Instagram that the Knicks have a winning record when he throws up on the court, hinting that he may have to do it again during the playoffs. A spokesperson for Madison Square Garden expressed well wishes for Morgan’s recovery and hoped to see him back in his courtside seat soon.
The 56-year-old actor, who is a long-time Knicks fan, has been involved in numerous events, including the “Saturday Night Live” 50th anniversary weekend celebrations. Additionally, Morgan has a comedy pilot in the works on NBC, where he plays a disgraced former football player trying to rebuild his image, co-starring with Daniel Radcliffe.
Despite the health scare at the game, Morgan’s fans are relieved to hear that he is doing well and continuing to entertain audiences both on and off the court. The resilient comedian is looking forward to future projects and making his return to his beloved Knicks games.
