Trimarian Court Bingo

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

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).
