Trimarian Court Bingo

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

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).
