Trimarian Court Bingo

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

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).

The Quarter - What a bunch of crazy kids!
