half remembering the last sort of struggle session about the dunk tank, but didn't whack a mole have the same racist origins as the dunk tank?
As far as I can find online the game was invented in the 70s as is. The predecessor to dunk tanks could be broadly compared to whac-a-mole, but it was throwing objects at a black person's head and them trying to dodge it, so it's not really the same thing.
my memory did not serve me well today. oh well
I don't think so? It's originally a Japanese arcade game from the 70s.
