      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.

    Gothamchess, a player so bright
    Was in a game with all his might.
    With a grin, he eyed his rook,
    And with an evil laugh he took
    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.
    Remember Levy and his darling look,
    And maybe you too, can sacrifice the rook!
