Explanation[edit | edit source]

This strip pokes fun at the then-ubiquitous advertising surrounding Raid: Shadow Legends, a free-to-play video game, by having Garfield watch a program sponsored by the game. The middle panel is the game's logo. The strip's title pokes fun at the sponsorship deals the makers of Raid: Shadow Legends's made as part of their aggressive advertising campaign.

This is one of two strips with the same setup, the other being 4314: Scamfield. This strip's author revealed in the author's notes for 4496: Such A Thing As "Too Fast" that this strip was submitted in July 2020; it is unknown which strip was submitted first, as it is unknown when #4314 was submitted.
