Fred Willard was arrested for lewd conduct last night in Hollywood when police allegedly caught him with his pants down in an adult movie theater ... TMZ has learned.
According to law enforcement sources, LAPD undercover vice officers went into the Tiki Theater in Hollywood and found the 78-year-old "Anchorman" star watching last night's feature ... with his penis exposed and in his hand.
We're told Willard was arrested around 8:45PM and booked for lewd conduct.
It was a quick release -- we're told he was out of police custody a short while later.
As for which movie Fred was watching -- there are 3 flicks in rotation at the theater ... "Follow Me 2," a XXX parody of "The Client List," and "Step Dad No. 2."
Willard is best known for his memorable roles in "Best in Show", "For Your Consideration", "American Wedding" and "Everybody Loves Raymond."
According to IMDB, Fred is "rumored" to be in pre-production for a movie entitled ... "The Yank."
It's a comedy.
UPDATE:
8:47 AM PT -- We're starting to get comments from people who say Fred is 72 and not 78 ... but official records show that he was born on September 18, 1933 ... NOT 1939.
7:06 AM PT -- Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the LAPD vice officers were not conducting a raid ... but rather a "random walk-through" of the premises.
We're told ... when theaters like this get their license, they have to allow cops in whenever they want ... to inspect.
In fact, the theater has a sign posted in the front which warns customers that the theater is "viewed by LAPD."
The theater also warns, "No Alcohol, No Weapons, No smoking inside" ... and no pets.
The signs do not warn about flogging the dolphin.
That usually doesn't happen when you get older.
Same thing happened to PeeWee Herman. Don’t these guys have DVD players?
Heh, heh, Willard. I bet the Dems try to pin this to Romney somehow...

Little Willy Lyrics
[ from Detroit Rock City Soundtrack ]
North side, east side
Little Willy, Willy wears the crown, he’s the king around town
Dancing, glancing
Willy drives them silly with his star shoe shimmy shuffle down
Way past one, and feeling alright
‘Cause with little Willy round they can last all night
Hey down, stay down, stay down down
‘Cause little Willy, Willy won’t go home
But you can’t push Willy round
Willy won’t go, try tellin’ everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won’t go home
Up town, down town
Little Willy, Willy drives them wild with his run-around style
Inside, outside
Willy sends them silly with his star-shine shimmy shuffle smile
Mama done chase Willy down through the hall
But laugh, Willy laugh, he don’t care at all
Hey down, stay down, stay down, down
‘Cause little Willy, Willy won’t go home
But you can’t push Willy round
Willy won’t go, try tellin’ everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won’t go home
Little Willy, Willy won’t
Willy won’t, Willy won’t
Little Willy, Willy won’t
Willy won’t, Willy won’t
Little Willy, Willy won’t
Willy won’t, Willy won’t
Little Willy, Willy won’t
Willy won’t, Willy won’t
Little Willy, Willy won’t go home
But you can’t push Willy round
Willy won’t go, try tellin’ everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won’t go home
Little Willy, Willy won’t go home
But you can’t push Willy round
Willy won’t go, try tellin’ everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won’t go home
never noticed till just now how much Pee Wee Herman and Nicholas Cage look alike...
Hey, wasn’t he in Firmwood Tonight?
Like father, like son?...........
Pay the hooker already!
Not at 78.............
They are showbiz folks. They like to show it.............
“put him in the cell with the long hose on him...put him in the cell with the long hose on him...I used to say ‘if he’s got a long enough hose he’s gonna have a lot of friends in the shower room...”
“wha-happened?”
For you “Mighty Wind” fans...
