Beautiful! Do you mean the bandana helmet? I don't think I've seen that before, but it's a bit like the old Iowa Barnstormers helmet, at least in concept. Just something that popped into my head. I thought it looked a bit like a ninja turtle from the back. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldschoolvikings Posted April 30, 2021 Author Share Posted April 30, 2021 OK... on with the western themed USFL teams. We've had the Wranglers, the Outlaws, the Gamblers, the Gunslingers, and now the final cowboy team, the Tampa Bay Bandits. That's 5 teams out of 18. Although how a western outlaw, wearing a red bandana (is this the same guy from the Oklahoma Outlaws?) on a galloping horse got all the way east to Tampa, I can't tell you. This one is pretty close to what the originally wore. It was such a blatant and unashamed rip of the Ohio State University, I though I'd just leave it that way. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up in Tampa and Sebring (south central Florida), graduated high school in 1986; went to many Bandits games back in the day and they did have a Bandit Trans Am on the sidelines for many of the games I attended. Such great memories and a fun time in the stadium compared to Bucs games back then. They would throw hundreds if not thousands of beach balls out of the press box that got batted around the stadium and they left the nets down during field goals and extra points...you caught the ball you got to keep it. Buddy of mine had his hands on one briefly before someone knocked it out of his hands. I remember watching Herschel Walker, Reggie White and many, many more back then...great memories flooding back.

oldschoolvikings Posted May 4, 2021 Author Share Posted May 4, 2021 Well, I got this far so I had to finish it off. The last two are the most nondescript and least memorable (to me at least) teams from the USFL, the Orlando Renegades (coached by Lee Corso!) and the Memphis Showboats. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavybass Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 I remember the Renegades being very drab compared to their Federals identity... Showboats are showboats and the Red makes them better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
