What well known gambits are unsound?

It is fun to start the day off reading a new discussion at Chess.com with the title of today's post, "What well known gambits are unsound?"


The original poster started off with the Latvian Gambit and the Albin Counter Gambit.


The very first responder chimed in with the Jerome Gambit!


As I've posted before, P.T. Barnum (a contemporary of Alonzo Wheeler Jerome) liked to say that “there’s no such thing as bad press, as long as they spell your name right.”
