Taking on Leverage for Co-Invest

Was wondering if this is a common / accepted practice:

Assuming one has a great relationship with their respective bank and can get a good rate, would you take out a loan to co-invest in your fund ?

I know it can be risky if the fund goes to shit, not looking for a lecture, just inquiring whether or not others do this and if anyone has a success story doing this ?! Haha

Cheers xx !!
