It is the oldest written chess game, somewhere around 1500. Google Scandinavian, Chess, Poem and you end up with love, war and trade.

To avoid those lines, Tyler329, I play 2... Nf6 if 3. c4, I play 3... c6. A sound opening, although black is down material.
I play it like this. Most games end up like the final position.
