Offerman discovered that his group of friends had been mistaken for robbers.
And they naturally saw these kids running, and we spent the whole night in jail.
Thankfully we put up enough of a collective front that they decided we werent the thieves, he said.
They let us go in the morning, so they kept us all night.
The incident ended on a fairly ridiculous note.
I went to jail and I was terrified, he said.
And I was like, Cmon you guys, clearly this is a bit.
But they wanted to teach me a lesson, and they did.
The actor made it back for the show in the nick of time.
