Tracy Morgan breaks his silence after being wheeled out of Madison Square Garden during last night’s Knicks game. 

The comedian went on Instagram to give his fans an update. In his post he revealed that he had food poisoning which resulted in him vomiting while sitting courtside. “Thank you for all your concern!” he wrote. “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 fell ill during the third quarter of the New York Knicks vs the Miami Heat game. He was seen vomiting on the floor while sitting courtside. Officials paused the game for ten minutes to handle the situation as the employees cleaned up the vomit. 

The comedian also joked that the Knicks are now 1-0 because of this vomit. “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.” 

We’re glad to know that Tracy Morgan is feeling better. We will continue to keep him in our thoughts and prayers.
