Tracy Morgan returns to MSG after harrowing health episode during Knicks game last month
By JAKE NISSE
Tracy Morgan returned to Madison Square Garden to watch his beloved Knicks on Tuesday night - about three weeks after he suffered a scary health episode and vomited on the court during a game.
On March 17, Morgan was sitting in his customary courtside seat when he became ill, and he was eventually escorted away in a wheelchair.
The actor and comedian revealed afterwards that he had been suffering from food poisoning.
On Tuesday, Morgan was in good spirits as he returned to the famed arena to watch the Knicks face the Celtics, with the team showing him on the jumbotron at one point during the game.
The 30 Rock star used the screen time to blow some kisses and say 'Go Knicks' as he received a loud applause from the crowd.
Following the health episode last month, Morgan took to Instagram from his hospital bed to update fans and let them know he was recovering.

'Thank you for all your concern! I’m doing ok now and doctors say it was food poisoning,' he said. '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!
'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.'
Morgan has diabetes and underwent a kidney transplant 15 years ago.
He also survived a near-fatal car accident in 2014 that left him in a coma for eight days.
While he made it through Tuesday's game without incident, the Knicks fell to the Celtics in disappointing fashion, losing 119-117 in overtime.

Morgan was joined by several other A-list celebrities at the game, as he sat next to Ben Stiller.
Benny Blanco and Selena Gomez were also in attendance, as was former Giants star Michael Strahan and Knicks icon Carmelo Anthony.
The Knicks (50-29) have three more games this regular season, including just one at home.
They'll host the Cavaliers on Friday before the playoffs begin on April 19th.
