TheWoWDBFun little quest! Use the flute he gives you by targeting the rats running around, then right click on the flute. If you're in range you'll hear some flute music play and then the rat will follow you. Do that 5 times, then return to monty! If you don't see any rats just walk around and wait a few moments, they respawn really quickly.

Way back during patch 1.2-1.3ish, you could use the flute outside of the tram.
I loved playing it randomly, and was very disappointed when Blizzard nerfed it because people were having fun with it.
Blizzard continued their stance on this, and many more fun things were nerfed, and still are to this day.
This quest is also great to waste some time if you are low leveled and just missed the tram.
