Sometimes Black is a bit too creative on defense. In the following game, he brings the Jerome Gambit down upon his head, and has only himself to blame.

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nf6
The Petroff Defense.
3.Bc4 Ng8
Odd. I wonder if he plays the Brooklyn Variation of Alekhine's Defense: 1.e4 Nf6 2.e5 Ng8!?
I have seen something similar played by White, but it's not something that I would recommend.
White's response in this game is tentative, at first, but then becomes Jerome-ish.
4.d3 Nc6 5.O-O Bc5 6.Bxf7+
So, we have a Jerome Gambit with two additional moves (d2-d3 and 0-0) for White.
6...Kxf7 7.Nxe5+ Nxe5 8.Qh5+ Ng6 9.Qd5+ Ke8 10.Qxc5 N8e7
11.Bg5 d6 12.Qd4 Ne5 13.f4 Rf8
Returning the sacrificed piece, to no avail.
14.fxe5 Rxf1+ 15.Kxf1 c5 16.Qc3 Qb6 17.exd6 Qxd6 18.Qxg7 Ng6
19.Nc3 Be6 20.Nb5 Qc6
A final slip.
21.Nc7+ Qxc7 Black resigned
