Trimarian Court Bingo

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

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).
