Tracy Morgan’s Courtside Chaos: Food Poisoning Strikes at Knicks Game

Tracy Morgan’s Courtside Chaos: Food Poisoning Strikes at Knicks Game
  • PublishedMarch 18, 2025

Tracy Morgan, the comedian known for his larger-than-life personality, managed to turn a Knicks game into a viral spectacle—not with his jokes, but with an unfortunate bout of food poisoning. During Monday night’s Knicks vs. Heat game at Madison Square Garden, Morgan, seated courtside, suddenly began projectile vomiting, causing a delay in the game as medics rushed to his aid. The incident, which could easily be mistaken for a scene from one of his comedy sketches, was later confirmed by Morgan himself on Instagram. He assured fans that he was recovering well, attributing the episode to food poisoning and thanking the MSG staff for their swift response.

In true Tracy Morgan fashion, he managed to find humor in the situation, joking that the Knicks are now “1-0” when he vomits on the court, suggesting he might repeat the act during the playoffs. While some reports claimed he was bleeding from the nose, sources close to Morgan clarified that this was not the case. The Madison Square Garden team released a statement wishing him a speedy recovery and expressing their eagerness to welcome him back.

This isn’t the first time Morgan has faced health challenges. The comedian has a history of diabetes, underwent a kidney transplant in 2010, and survived a severe car accident in 2014. Despite these hurdles, Morgan has consistently bounced back with his trademark resilience and humor.

The incident serves as a reminder that even celebrities aren’t immune to the occasional bout of bad sushi—or whatever it was that caused his stomach to revolt. But if there’s one thing we can count on, it’s Tracy Morgan turning a potentially embarrassing moment into a punchline.

And let’s be honest, if anyone can make food poisoning at a basketball game entertaining, it’s Tracy Morgan.
