Hold 'Em Jail is a 1932 American pre-Code comedy film starring Wheeler and Woolsey. They play a couple of boobs who are wrongfully convicted for firearm possession and sent to prison, where they somehow end up playing on the warden's football team.

Rare for the duo, it's a straight comedy with no musical numbers. The title is a pun on the then-popular college cheer, "Hold 'em, Yale."
