The hype began on Facebook when almost everyone joined in to support Conan O’Brien by being a part of the I’m With COCO campaign. Looks like what started in the virtual sphere by real people is coming out into the real world as people organized rallies in New York, Seattle, Los Angeles and Chicago. The fans are rallying in to support the Tonight Show, perhaps they realized that a massive Facebook Page isn’t going to get any good out.
The major showdown is taking place right where the show was hosted in L.A. and the pack is lead by Steven Ho, who was also the first guest on the show. The word has really got out into the real world after it has amassed more than 300,000 fans on Facebook. The numbers for the events include over 1,600 guests who have confirmed their attendance for LA while another 1,000 might join in Chicago.
