Trimarian Court Bingo

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

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).
