t.r.: And I got sick that morning, and so I told my wife, Heather, “Just go. Take the kids.” They had a car come for them, and drove them to Madison Square Garden. And she showed up and they said, “Well, if the person from ‘S.N.L.’ ’s not here . . . then you’re not allowed to come in.” They turned my wife away. My kids had to leave, and they’re crying. And then the car was gone, too, so they had to hail a cab to get back home. They turned away my crying kids.
