Could Not Happen, Right? (Part 1)

Many readers are familiar with the game young Paul Morphy played against his uncle, Alonzo Morphy, where he gave his elder the odds of a Rook, and still checkmated him – with the last move being Castles:

Paul Morphy - Alonzo Morphy
New Orleans, 1850
Remove White's Queen Rook

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Nf6 4.Ng5 d5 5.exd5 Nxd5 6.Nxf7 Kxf7 7.Qf3+ Ke6 8.Nc3 Nd4 9.Bxd5+ Kd6 10.Qf7 Be6 11.Bxe6 Nxe6 12.Ne4+ Kd5 13.c4+ Kxe4 14.Qxe6 Qd4 15.Qg4+ Kd3 16.Qe2+ Kc2 17.d3+ Kxc1 18.O-O checkmate

This is certainly a fun game to play over.

What if, instead of "Rook odds", someone gave an opponent "Jerome Gambit odds" – and also won the game with Castles as the last move?

Could not happen, right?

It did happen. I'll post the game tomorrow.
