- However, the episode "Jellyfishing" was produced earlier, and does include this track during a chase scene, when Squidward chases a jellyfish on wheelchair.
- This track and "Tomfoolery" have become the main subject of the viral "I put SpongeBob music over x" videos on the internet.

- A snippet of the track is heard during the televised version of The SpongeBob Musical: Live on Stage!
- In "Mrs. Puff, You're Fired" and "Good Ol' Whatshisname," the start of this track plays before transitioning into "Sponge Monger," likely due to the similar instrumentation and meter between the tracks, and the similar narrative contexts in which the tracks play.
