Hundreds flocked to the state capitol building in Connecticut on Wednesday seriously pissed off over the cancellation of H.S. football ... and the scene was WILD!!
Just days after the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference announced it was unsafe to play football amid the coronavirus pandemic this fall ... nearly 1,000 players, coaches and parents overran the government building to try to get the ruling reversed.
Check out video from the protest ... it's pretty intense -- with everyone screaming "Let us play!" in unison while holding signs, flags and even football helmets.
