Here is a game which transposes into this opening - look for this position here
Black to play, and the horrible ...Ra6 which to tell you the truth didn't look that horrible at first!

[pgn] 1.d4 d5 2.e4 dxe4 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.f3 exf3 5.Nxf3 c6 6.Bc4 [/pgn] Thanks chesskid - never have really played this either, but I like it. Here is an old game by Mr Diemer himself, where the queen goes to f3 instead of the knight. A queenside castle with an open d file, a queen sac, and a knight + rook mate 🙂
