Trimarian Court Bingo

Two Peers take a joint Associate. "Anno Societatis" pronounced in more than one way by Court Herald(s). Royal Retainer picks his or her nose. Person called before the Crown has to be coaxed to come forward far enough to kneel on the pillows. Court is more than one hour late.
The Court Herald announces somebody whose name is a bad pun. Somebody drops the Sword of State. Audible laughter at an inappropriate time from the naughty Peers standing in the back. Someone uses the phrase, "I beg a boon!" Female retainer wearing a dress is holding a spear.
Clothing fashions are visibly influenced by a recent movie. Award of Arms scroll begins with something other than the phrase "Praiseworthy are those..." FREE SPACE The Order of the White Scarf hold a faux Knighting ceremony. The Crown gives out no awards with the word "Argent" in their names.
The crowd does that stupid "Oooh... Ahhh..." thing when a scroll is displayed. Somebody does court schtick which is apparently supposed to be funny... but it isn't. The Crown calls someone up to give them an award, and starts with "You've been bad..." Every single Herald comes up to "elevate" one of their members for passing a test. Someone who kneels before the Thrones really should have been wearing underwear.
The Queen has a triskele somewhere on her garb. Yet another Kingdom office changes hands. Somebody makes a completely inaudible presentation to the Crown. The Court Herald mispronounces somebody's name. Yet another guild is formed with great pomp and circumstance.

Instructions: Pay attention in court! If you see or hear something described in one of the boxes, mark off that box. If you mark off five boxes in a row (horizontally, vertically or diagonally -- true diagonal, not "sort of" diagonal), jump up and shout "Bingo!" (and pray that the Crown has a sense of humor).

Drusilla sez: Stultorum quanto status sublimior, tanto manifestior turpitudo!
