Tracy Morgan arrested for drunk driving

by Bob Sassone, posted Nov 28th 2006 3:02PM

Tracy MorganWhen I first saw the headline, I thought it sounded like the plot for an upcoming episode of 30 Rock, or something that would happen to Jordan McDeere on Studio 60: comedian Tracy Morgan was arrested this morning in New York for drunk driving. Of course, TMZ has all the info (they seem to be the go-to site for breaking celeb news...I think they must have a reporter covering every single celeb in the world at all times). Morgan admitted to cops that he was drinking beer before getting into the car.

And this isn't the first time that Morgan has been arrested for drunk driving. He was arrested and convicted of D.U.I. last year in Los Angeles. Maybe this is part of some cross-country drunk driving tour that Morgan is doing. "On December 9th I'll be driving drunk on the freeway near Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and then on the 14th I'll be in Cleveland driving drunk on the street outside the Yuk Yuk Hut."

The 30 Rock actors were at the lighting of the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree, at 30 Rockefeller Center (can you Believe it!) and Tina Fey (Brilliant!) brought her baby to push the magic light the tree button. But Tracy Morgan couldn't make it and be seen by millions on one of the biggest television events of the year, he had been picked up for drunk driving the morning before. Alec Baldwin made it barely from the looks of him.

Toby,

I think you're wrong. Tracy will get a 1 season part on LOST and then get killed. That's the way that DUI/LOST connection works.

I love Tracy Morgan .. I never cared for him much on SNL, but he's awesome on 30 Rock and his Howard Stern appearance made him even better in my eyes. Somehow I think this arrest will only benefit him..
