Trimarian Court Bingo

The Court Herald announces somebody whose name is a bad pun. Somebody says "Busted!" to the recipient of an award. Yet another guild is formed with great pomp and circumstance. The Order of the White Scarf hold a faux Knighting ceremony. Two Peers take a joint Associate.
The crowd does that stupid "Oooh... Ahhh..." thing when a scroll is displayed. Every single Herald comes up to "elevate" one of their members for passing a test. Award of Arms scroll begins with something other than the phrase "Praiseworthy are those..." Clothing fashions are visibly influenced by a recent movie. Someone uses the phrase, "I beg a boon!"
The Queen has a triskele somewhere on her garb. King Odo says that someone "rocks". FREE SPACE The Crown calls someone up to give them an award, and starts with "You've been bad..." The Crown gives three or more awards to their own retainers and/or household.
Earl Benen disrupts court with his madcap hijinks. Court is more than one hour late. Audible laughter at an inappropriate time from the naughty Peers standing in the back. Somebody drops the Sword of State. Royal Retainer picks his or her nose.
"Anno Societatis" pronounced in more than one way by Court Herald(s). Someone who kneels before the Thrones really should have been wearing underwear. Somebody does court schtick which is apparently supposed to be funny... but it isn't. Somebody makes a completely inaudible presentation to the Crown. Female retainer wearing a dress is holding a spear.

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).
