I've heard of taildraggers being parked in their tiedowns by being
taxied in backward. The pilot gets a bit of speed, aims at the
tiedown, intentionally groundloops it, stopping the swing with opposite
brake as it lines up and the momentum originally built up drags the
airplane into the tiedown spot.
I don't have the nerve to try it.
