Art Contest

Today's Dinette Set is as confusing as they get. If I may attempt to summarize the narrative sequence of events we are requested to follow:
  • Apparently, a magazine had an "art" contest to trace Binky the Deer, who looks suspiciously like Bambi.
  • Apparently Burl, for reasons passing understanding, entered this contest, not to mention the fact that this implies Burl was reading (or looking at) a magazine.
  • Apparently, a child won the contest rather than Burl.
  • Apparently, the artist believes someone is still paying attention.
  • Apparently, the County Fair in Crustwood has an art contest and Burl entered it.
  • Apparently, Burl won this contest.
If you made it this far, your reward is a punchline with such tortured grammar ("rigged for kids") that it is almost incomprehensible.
