Tracy Morgan cut a pretty notorious figure at the nightclubs, and according to Rolling Stone, there would be a point in the night when it wasn't Morgan at all anymore — it was his alter ego, Chico Divine. "I love Chico," Morgan said of the over-the-top intoxicated version of his personality. "He is the coolest dude, he would never hurt anybody. Chico never shot at the cops. Chico never fought. The most Chico ever did was throw up in Club Suede."

Unfortunately, "Chico" also got behind the wheel of a car and left Morgan with several arrests for DUIs. After Morgan was sentenced to wear an ankle monitor in 2007, he told PBS (via CNN) three years later that getting sober had been incredibly hard. Especially, he said, when his son started asking him how he'd feel if he started following in his footsteps. "My son said, 'What if I start driving drunk and kill somebody?' That right there made me just look into the mirror, like, I got to step up my game."

Along with his son's grounding influence, Morgan also credited his father for teaching him how important it was to "learn from your mistakes." A year and a half later, he told People that he had been sober since, and while it meant he now felt everything, good and bad, he said that was ultimately a positive thing: "I want to feel it all because I've realized nothing lasts."
