I helped a ton of people get the Garn Nighthow mount, and I also helped create an entire heroic raid for the Ahead of the Curve mount just an hour before it was removed.
Awesome! My guild was doing Garrosh kills for gold for the heirlooms and the mount - the last week, we decided to do it for free. 
I was the 7th to hit level 60 in my guild during shadowlands.
Or 8th.
I dunno.
You did say lame claim to fame.

One of the lamer. 
But a claim is a claim.
When I first started wow, I made a dwarf rogue and got laughed at because of the racial being poor
My IRL lame claim to fame is I saw Quentin Tarantino disembarking from a United Airlines airplane in PWM in Portland Maine.

I had a summer job in a touristy town in my area as a butcher.
I shaved some Black Forest ham for Dukes of Hazzardâs Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane and cut to-order steaks for the cast and crew of Corner Gas.

Update, I look like this now and have Youtube fameâŠ
Back when Guild Levels were a thing. I owned a guild on Wyrmrest Accord named < Death Becomes Her > I was shocked one day to get a in game message that my guild had attained realm 1st to reach level 25, which was the max level.
Sadly the account, the characters and the guild are lost to history and not recoverable, according to Blizzard.
Darn it.

Thatâs unfortunate. 
Randomly decided one day to start farming tusk of mannoroth, ran it probably 10ish times. no luck. one day was sitting in orgrimmar bored thought meh ill go run it i guess. i got them. i did probably 20 runs if that, counting actually raiding it when it was current.
Hey⊠my Resto shaman and MW Monk (who were originally Alliance Pandarens named ThunderFaux & Jadekitsune) were in that guild many moons ago, before I got the bright idea of making everything all goblin and having the same naming scheme (now DrĂombastic & DrĂoombastic), yes Iâm boring and donât have original names lol.
Saddens me you lost the guild, was a fun one with good peeps in it.

Got a warrior named Howard.

Being the worst player in the game.
i used to solo tank zulâaman war bear runs back in bc on my druid. i had 100% dodge and was unhittable with my gear and most importantly the at the time uber rare badge of tenacity. i would end runs with least damage taken as tank lol. his name was tieran and he was a night elf druid. i played on oceanic and i was known far and wide on allakazam website. the old wow reference website.
My fury warrior joined a PvP battleground (itâs gone now, but it had gates after you landed on the shore) in-progress and just ran up the West side and took the castle while everyone battled on the East side. It was the only time I felt like I single-handedly won a BG for my team.

Just for curiosityâs sakeâŠ
You do know that despite popular belief, the letter Ă is actually Latin script in the German language representing the letter S and not the letter B, right?

In other words, your name is actually Sombastic.
Just wondering. Itâs one of those little things that people do and think theyâre being clever about, much like how nearly everyone subs out the word faux for fox and calls it Faux News. That word is frequently mispronounced as fox (fĂ€ks) when it should actually be pronounced as foe (fĆ).
I see it often enough that Iâve actually become slightly OCD about it. More than a few people also get super defensive about when I do point it out.
I mean, itâs obvious theyâre using the character to make it look like a last name following an appellation, is it not?
