Yes!
Pin the tail on the hurricane!

II grew up with those! We also got them free from the grocery stores.
I miss them. Not that I have an imminent need for them since moving out of hurricane territory, but I sometimes track storms "back home".
WunderMaps and the like are great, but I enjoyed the very hands-on process of putting pins in the paper map. And with these, even if the radio died, you could at least still see the info you had gathered so far.
