Trimarian Court Bingo

The Court Herald announces somebody whose name is a bad pun. Every single Herald comes up to "elevate" one of their members for passing a test. Somebody makes a completely inaudible presentation to the Crown. Female retainer wearing a dress is holding a spear. The Crown calls someone up to give them an award, and starts with "You've been bad..."
The Court Herald mispronounces somebody's name. Somebody does court schtick which is apparently supposed to be funny... but it isn't. The Queen has a triskele somewhere on her garb. Someone who kneels before the Thrones really should have been wearing underwear. Clothing fashions are visibly influenced by a recent movie.
"Anno Societatis" pronounced in more than one way by Court Herald(s). Someone uses the phrase, "I beg a boon!" FREE SPACE 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.
Court is more than one hour late. Yet another Kingdom office changes hands. Somebody drops the Sword of State. Yet another guild is formed with great pomp and circumstance. Two Peers take a joint Associate.
The Order of the White Scarf hold a faux Knighting ceremony. Earl Benen disrupts court with his madcap hijinks. 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.

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).
