Tracy Morgan was rushed to a hospital moments ago at the Sundance Film Festival -- after the actor fell unconscious at an award ceremony ... TMZ has learned.
Tracy was being honored at the Creative Coalition Spotlight Awards in Park City, Utah -- and sources tell TMZ, he appeared extremely intoxicated during his award acceptance speech.
We're told Tracy was escorted out of the building soon after his speech -- and fell unconscious outside the building.
Law enforcement sources tell us, an ambulance was then dispatched to Tracy's location.
We're told Tracy was picked up and rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment. Calls to Tracy's rep were not immediately returned.
Amy Roberts, a spokeswoman for Park City Medical Center, tells TMZ no drugs or alcohol were found in Tracy's system upon medical evaluation.
Morgan's rep, Lewis Kay, also released a statement saying, "From a combination of exhaustion and altitude, Tracy is seeking medical attention."
Kay adds, "He is with his fiancée and grateful to the Park City Medical Center for their care. Any reports of Tracy consuming alcohol are 100% false."
9:50 AM PT: Tracy just tweeted, claiming the high altitude was responsible for his 911 emergency last night -- "Superman ran into a little kryptonite. The high altitude in Utah shook up this kid from Brooklyn."

That guys is a mess. He's F-uped several past concerts. He needs to dry-out or he'll end up like Amy Wine-o.
I saw Morgan perform in San Francisco and it was the most outrageous standup show I've ever seen, as he spoke repeatedly about raping his wife. Of course it's in the context of comedy, but it was still remarkable to see how it was compulsive, as if he couldn't stop himself from talking about it, particularly as he sensed the disapproval of the crowd. No matter what, he's always been fascinating to watch.
Can't stand the guy. He's an A-level doucher and the worst part of 30 Rock. Please send him to rehab and keep him there.
He was just bragging about sobriety! Saying it made him "awesome"..this is so sad.
didnt he get a kidney transplant a few years ago? wtf is doing drinking let alone getting drunk
Maybe alcohol poisoning! Thats actually what killed Amy Winehouse in the end. When will people realize that alcohol isnt fun only trouble and its dangerous when abused!
I hope the doctors are white! When he comes out of the anasteesha and realize that WHITE doctors & nurses saved him,he'll think twice about mouthing off about white people!Damn racist!
Maybe his son told him he was gay and he had no knife upon his person to stab him with. Chim-chimmeree! Chim-chimmeree Chim-Chim Cheroo!
I can't wait to see how 30 Rock handles this. It will be special.
Here I thought he had asphyxiated himself from keeping his head up his a** for so frequent and prolonged periods. But no, just another drunken loser.
At least he is consistent on the 'loser' part.
I like this dude but hes a mess!!! he's all over the freaking place!!!
He could be in a diabetic shock ... lets give him the benefit of the doubt ...
