A gentleman, who uses the handle Draconian at the Internet Chess Club, allowed the shortest possible checkmate with the moves 1. g4 e5 2. f4 Qh4 MATE in a 3 minute Blitz game.
History people know that Draco was a harsh ruler and lawmaker, but it was this online blitz player with the high rating who was roughed up pretty bad taking it straight up the poop shoot after playing Henry Grob's horrible looking opening. San Antonio player Psychiatrist John Patty lost to it once at tournament in a Hospital I think. He then needed a shrink, whining and crying how should have punished the guy who had the nerve to play it against a master who had crashed hard into his 2200 floor. Do not think this is the same PHD who puts out his shingle in Oakland, California.
