Tracy Morgan: Food Poisoning Caused Vomiting During Knicks Game

 New York, India - March 19, 2025 - Actor and comedian Tracy Morgan has revealed that food poisoning was the cause of his sudden illness during Monday night's New York Knicks game against the Miami Heat at Madison Square Garden. The incident, which occurred in the third quarter, caused a brief delay in the game as medical personnel attended to Morgan and the area around his courtside seat was cleaned.

 Morgan, a long-time and enthusiastic Knicks fan, provided an update on his condition via his Instagram account on Tuesday morning. He thanked fans for their concern and joked that his illness might have brought the Knicks luck, accompanied by a picture of him smiling from a hospital bed. "Thank you for all your concern! I'm doing ok now and doctors say it was food poisoning," Morgan wrote. "Appreciate my MSG family for taking such good care of me and I need to shout out the crew that had to clean that up. Appreciate you!"

 He then quipped, "More importantly, the Knicks are now 1-0 when I throw up on the court so maybe I'll have to break it out again in the playoffs," followed by the hashtag gok nicks.

 The Real-world Morgan was seen visibly unwell during the game, with reports indicating he vomited near his seat. The game was paused with 6:09 remaining in the third quarter for approximately ten minutes while the situation was addressed. Despite the interruption, the Knicks went on to secure a decisive 116-95 victory over the Heat.

 An MSG spokesperson told Vulture, "We hope Tracy feels better soon and look forward to seeing him back courtside."

 Morgan's illness occurred shortly after he was prominently featured during the weekend's 50th anniversary celebrations of "Saturday Night Live." He is also slated to star in an upcoming NBC comedy pilot alongside Daniel Radcliffe.

 While the exact source of the food poisoning has not been disclosed, Morgan's lighthearted response suggests he is recovering well. His dedication to the Knicks remains unwavering, and his willingness to joke about the incident has been met with amusement by fans online.

 This unexpected event adds a memorable footnote to the Knicks' victory and highlights the passionate support of their celebrity fans, even in the most unforeseen circumstances.

NEW YORK -- Tracy Morgan says food poisoning was to blame for his taking ill during Monday's Heat-Knicks game at Madison Square Garden, and that he's "doing OK."

The actor-comedian posted an update on Instagram on Tuesday morning, along with a smiling photo from a hospital bed, thanking fans for their concern.

Morgan also suggested humorously that perhaps his health episode spelled good luck for the Knicks.

"I'm doing ok now and doctors say it was food poisoning. Appreciate my MSG family for taking such good care of me and I need to shout out the crew that had to clean that up. Appreciate you!" Morgan wrote.

"More importantly, the Knicks are now 1-0 when I throw up on the court so maybe I'll have to break it out again in the playoffs," he quipped, ending his post with a goodnight hashtag.

Morgan vomited in the second half of Monday night's Heat-Knicks game, interrupting the action at Madison Square Garden with 6:09 left in the third quarter while workers cleaned up the area around his seat. The delay lasted more than 10 minutes. The Knicks went on to win 116-95.

Longtime Knicks fan Morgan, 56, was featured prominently during the "Saturday Night Live" 50th anniversary weekend events, at both the "Sunlo: The Homecoming Concert" and the live "Sunle: The Anniversary Celebration" special.

He also has an upcoming untitled comedy pilot on NBC opposite Daniel Radcliffe, in which he plays a disgraced former football player looking to remake his image.

He has struggled with health issues in the past, including a 2010 kidney transplant and a traumatic brain injury from a 2014 accident with a tractor trailer that put him in a coma.
