The Facebook group I'm With COCO which now has 348,372 fans is fast growing and Artist Mike Mitchell who designed the iconic logo for Conan is tweeting from the rally.
Since the upsetting rumors that Jay Leno was coming back to late-night television and the latest talks of a contract which will dismiss O'Brien all together with a pay off of nearly $40 million, fans have been uniting across the country via Facebook in hopes to save their red-headed hero.
Supportive groups have popped up on the popular social network including Save Conan O'Brien, Team Conan, and I'm with COCO. And as of today, the rallies have officially surfaced beyond cyber space. Besides the COCO assembly in Los Angeles, other groups are set to rally outside of NBC Studios in Chicago and New York City.
Protectors braving the rains
The rain did not, could not, would not stop the "I'm With Coco" rally today at Universal Studios. An estimated (if you can believe what you read on Twitter) 300 to 400 people gathered at the lot where "The Tonight Show" is taped to protest NBC's imminent firing of Conan O'Brien.
According to @laist, the crowd withstood morning downpours to chant "Jay Leno sucks!" as someone dressed as Leno ran around.
Then, their hero arrived, the skies turned blue, and "The Tonight Show" passed out pizza from Miceli's, as "Coco" made his way to the roof to wave to his fans.
"The whole time, people were just screaming their heads off," @Laist wrote. "Celebrity chaos at its best."
