Jackass star Bam Margera was arrested after partying a little too hard during Mardi Gras in New Orleans.

TMZ obtained photos of the 32-year-old actor being escorted into a police station Monday after he was detained by officers in the French Quarter.

Bam confirmed the arrest, saying, "Yeah, I was swimming in a pool with my clothes on at Mardi Gras." He was soaking wet when the cuffs went on.

He added, "Not really a good story ... but that's what happened."

Bam was released from custody. It's not known whether he's been charged with a crime.
