Trimarian Court Bingo

Yet another Kingdom office changes hands. Somebody drops the Sword of State. Person called before the Crown has to be coaxed to come forward far enough to kneel on the pillows. Audible laughter at an inappropriate time from the naughty Peers standing in the back. The Court Herald mispronounces somebody's name.
Court is more than one hour late. Award of Arms scroll begins with something other than the phrase "Praiseworthy are those..." Female retainer wearing a dress is holding a spear. Somebody makes a completely inaudible presentation to the Crown. Yet another guild is formed with great pomp and circumstance.
Clothing fashions are visibly influenced by a recent movie. Royal Retainer picks his or her nose. FREE SPACE The Order of the White Scarf hold a faux Knighting ceremony. Two Peers take a joint Associate.
The Queen has a triskele somewhere on her garb. The Court Herald announces somebody whose name is a bad pun. Someone uses the phrase, "I beg a boon!" The Crown gives three or more awards to their own retainers and/or household. The crowd does that stupid "Oooh... Ahhh..." thing when a scroll is displayed.
Somebody says "Busted!" to the recipient of an award. "Anno Societatis" pronounced in more than one way by Court Herald(s). King Odo says that someone "rocks". 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.

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).
