Do small planes have parking brakes? I don't remember having ever

Most do. The parking brake designs on early model 172s and 150/152s were
known for sticking in the "on" position. As such, many instructors would
either tell students not to use it, or not bother even telling the student
there was one (it was an inconspicuous knob on the lower panel). The
procedure for unsticking the brake involved several people pushing and
pulling on the plane until it freed up.
