1. https://classic.wowhead.com/item=811/axe-of-the-deep-woods was my first BoE Epic, although it may have been after BC launched, in Arathi Highlands on my Shaman.
2. https://classic.wowhead.com/item=943/warden-staff for obvious reasons ;) I actually had this in vanilla on my Feral druid, got it for free in my 40's literally because I won a game of "Hey, whoever finds me first get's Warden Staff for free!" - so /target person spin around, there he is on the AH roof in Org! Ran to him, traded - BAM! Warden Staff for a leveling feral druid, insane.....
Since I'll be rolling a warlock in classic, I have no idea what world drops I should be chasing lol
You will be chasing underworld band(s).
Back in 2005 I received a https://classic.wowhead.com/item=2824/hurricane
This time around I would appreciate a https://classic.wowhead.com/item=943/warden-staff as I will be rolling with a Druid :)

I think you're obligated to provide us screenshots of you fighting a yeti with TBL equipped.
I don't remember my first BOE epic, however I remember my first BOE rare. It was https://classic.wowhead.com/item=11302/uthers-strength that has dropped for me in WPL at Uther's Tomb. I guess the name is fitting then. It was horrible, but I was so excited I still wore it.
I remember throughout time looting: https://classic.wowhead.com/item=14549/boots-of-avoidance , https://classic.wowhead.com/item=2824/hurricane and https://classic.wowhead.com/item=1973/orb-of-deception which was epic if not by name. However I can't say which one was first or if it even wasn't something else.
I was killing furbolgs on my human rogue for Timbermaw Hold reputation when a https://classic.wowhead.com/item=1315/lei-of-lilies dropped. I was ecstatic! I gave it to a guildie.
Oh yeah that sweet https://classic.wowhead.com/item=3075/eye-of-flame from Un'Goro, good memories :smile:
https://classic.wowhead.com/item=1168/skullflame-shield For my first character Paladin Dwarf :)
dwarven hand cannon was my first boe epic farming in winter spring on troll mage. sold it and was the first horde person with an epic mount on my low pop mountain time server
Not classic, but as an idea for how powerful world drops can be, at one point early in Cataclysm I got a world drop shield and rocketed up the charts to be in the top 5 geared tanks on the server. I can only hope I get something like that again!

Why a Yeti? 😂
I will try to find additional proof somewhere, but I used to use puush to upload images & they have unfortunately vanished from the net (the screenshot used in the original post was obviously not mine, as you can see my character in it).
Edit: found something on my phone 
https://classic.wowhead.com/item=873/staff-of-jordan was the first one that dropped on me I think! I remember it being really exciting.

Original ad for the game: 
I still remember all those years ago when I killed a coyote in the Badlands and a https://classic.wowhead.com/item=873/staff-of-jordan dropped. I sold it for 300 gold, which was a fantastic price at the time.
I don't have any particular desires for world drops, but a https://classic.wowhead.com/item=1728/teebus-blazing-longsword would always be fun for the charm of the "front of the box" value.
