Quick, someone tell Rupert Murdoch that getting hit in the face with a pie is fun. This 1960s game from Hasbro actually encouraged kids to give themselves whipped cream facials. A spinner determines how many cranks you give the handle, but how many cranks it will take to splat a pie in your face is a mystery. Super fun... right?

Didn't they have a similar game on Nickelodeon's What Would You Do?
