Tracy Morgan says he's going to be just fine.
The actor and comedian caused an interruption in Monday night’s Heat-Knicks game at Madison Square Garden when he got sick in the second half. Morgan shared a message on Instagram Tuesday with a photo of him in a hospital bed. He said doctors told him it was a case of food poisoning.
There was a pause in play with 6:09 left in the third quarter while workers cleaned up the area around Morgan's seat. The delay lasted for more than 10 minutes.
The Knicks went on to a 116-95 victory.
Morgan says he may be on to something.
"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 joked in an Instagram post.
A spokesperson for Madison Square Garden said they hope Morgan feels better soon, and they were looking forward to seeing him back in his courtside seat.
The 56-year-old Morgan, a longtime Knicks fan, was featured prominently during the “Saturday Night Live” 50th anniversary weekend events, at both the “SNL50: The Homecoming Concert” and the live “SNL50: The Anniversary Celebration” special.
He also has a forthcoming, untitled comedy pilot on NBC, in which he plays a disgraced former football player looking to remake his image, opposite Daniel Radcliffe.
