      I can see it theoretically happening in a beginner game where the player realizes promoting to queen is stalemate and so makes a 3rd rook instead, but instead of following with a triple rook sacrifice its a triple rook blunder and Levy is screaming "and he sacrifices... the rooook" just for the memes.

    His opponent’s pawn with a daring look
    And sacrifices the rook!
    The crowd went wild, they couldn’t contain
    Their excitement for this bold chess game.
    Gothamchess emerged victorious,
    Thanks to his sacrifice, oh so glorious.
