I've done it a couple of times, but this is the only one I can recall. I was somewhat jubilant, I believe. Of course, I would have taken the rook, first...

Yeah, he was lucky there was a mate or else I would have taken his queen!

Indeed. On reflection, I wouldn't have taken the rook - I would have wanted the proper Phildor mate.
