Most Unusual FiveThirtyEight Graphs from 2015

I'm appreciative that FiveThirtyEight (the blogging outlet of the stats celebrity Nate Silver) compiled their 47 most unusual graphs from 2015. It's not clear how they defined "unusual"--it seems to be based on the topic and/or design. Some graphics used standard designs (e.g. line graphs) to visualize an unusual and interesting dataset (see #18 "The U.S. Has Won the Women's World Cup"). Other graphics implement new and creative visualization strategies (see #35 "Where Do Your State's Taxes Come From?"). 

For example, I love the hexagonal heat maps they use to display basketball stats.
