The Renegades played at the Florida Citrus Bowl. Orlando lay within the territory of the Bandits, which drew many fans from the Orlando area. Rather than resist the franchise's move to Orlando, however, Bandits owner John Bassett embraced it. Although Bassett had claimed nearly all of Florida south of the Jacksonville area as his home territory, he readily surrendered those rights when the Federals initially made plans to move to Miami, and did the same when they ultimately moved to Orlando.
