kara, and then everything up to sunwell
Scholomance, back when my first Druid hit 60 and it was tuned for 10-Man. Everybody did it with 10 Man instead of 5, because otherwise it would take 200 Hours to complete and was a huge Pain in the Ass. So much fun!
My first raid was scholo 10 on vanilla first week of release...
My priest, still 60, still earned the first epic staff dropped on kael'thas server europe the following days after the first gandling kill. =)
On beta, we runed instances so much....
Was the no-life period...
Karazhan is my first one.
Hate to say it, but my first raid was Blackwing Decent .. yeshyesh, Cataclysm! (Started playing in Cata aswell) Cleared it full normal and then stopped again.
Then started again in Firelands and killed everything since then in current content HC (except for Tsulong/Sha last tier)
I'm amazed that it seems like Kara seems to be after both vanilla raids and MoP raids. Not surprisingly, it's ahead of cata though.
Anyway, Kara was mine... I think I was in Kara within a month of BC launching, having started playing during the BC pre-patch.
I recall it being Molten Core, but I really didn't do much in that raid. I think we cleared some trash, then we called the raid because our tanks were not geared enough.
My first serious raid, with a proper guild and real time investment from my end was Karazan. That atmosphere, the layout, design and development of that raid was, and still is, phenomenal.
Onyxia!
In BC...
"In life, I was raised to hate the undead. Trained to destroy them. When I became Forsaken, I hated myself most of all. But now I see it is the Alliance that fosters this malice. The human kingdoms shun their former brothers and sisters because we remind them what's lurking beneath the facade of flesh. It's time to end their cycle of hatred. The Alliance deserves to fall." - Lilian Voss
Upper Blackrock Spire @ 60
I believe it was UBRS. Don't think I ever did any of the 5mans in a raid.
Depends on what you count as raid, first, prbly any of the intances you could do either 5 or 10 man, if they dont count, then prbly ubrs, and if that dont count mc or onyxya, I dont really remember.
Karazhan. No maps for raids/dungeons back then, and stepping inside such a big place, I was mindlessly running after my friends.
It felt soo relieving reaching the top of the tower
Dragon Soul
Stratholme with lvl 58 ^^ Those 10 man runs on the later to be 5man instances were stupid from on the begining
Magtheridon's Lair.. followed by Gruul, then kara and za!
Uhm, I'm not sure whether is was LBRS or Scholomance. At 58 with 10 people.

They all wanna cash in on easy shit, and there is enough easy shit in single player console games that I'm not gonna pay $15 a month instead.
Yeah, indeed. A part of our guild went in to farm the thrash waves and to see the first boss, I believe there were ~12-15 of us, at most. Ended up killing the boss and having some slight frustrations from the rest of the raiders on sunday raid. "We accidentally killed the first boss ".
I think I've already answered but I'll do it again while I'm here.. I don't really consider BRS/Scholo/Strat as raids, but those were definately the first I attended. However, of the actual tier-raids it was Molten Core. Zul'Gurub wasn't yet released, if my memory serves me right (though it wasn't released too long after I started raiding). A lot of good memories, I still miss the feeling of being that amazed and excited. Raiding still, it's still fun but doesn't anymore have that "Wow, omfg!"-factor.
