Of true sacrifices (not ones that just win on the spot), my personal favorite piece sac in the opening is the reverse Halloween after white plays g3 in the four knights. It's close to sound, it's playable, it's fun, and it's a lot better than the version with white:
EDIT: the most important difference is that when white plays this, the kingside has not been weakened with g6, so there are better resources for black than there are for white - paradoxically, white's extra tempo has given him a harder defense against this gambit.
I like the muzio gambit
