Trimarian Court Bingo

Somebody says "Busted!" to the recipient of an award. Someone who kneels before the Thrones really should have been wearing underwear. Every single Herald comes up to "elevate" one of their members for passing a test. Somebody drops the Sword of State. "Anno Societatis" pronounced in more than one way by Court Herald(s).
The Queen has a triskele somewhere on her garb. Yet another Kingdom office changes hands. The Crown gives three or more awards to their own retainers and/or household. The Crown gives out no awards with the word "Argent" in their names. Court is more than one hour late.
Female retainer wearing a dress is holding a spear. Award of Arms scroll begins with something other than the phrase "Praiseworthy are those..." FREE SPACE The Order of the White Scarf hold a faux Knighting ceremony. Someone uses the phrase, "I beg a boon!"
Somebody makes a completely inaudible presentation to the Crown. Earl Benen disrupts court with his madcap hijinks. Person called before the Crown has to be coaxed to come forward far enough to kneel on the pillows. Royal Retainer picks his or her nose. The Court Herald announces somebody whose name is a bad pun.
The Crown calls someone up to give them an award, and starts with "You've been bad..." Two Peers take a joint Associate. Audible laughter at an inappropriate time from the naughty Peers standing in the back. The crowd does that stupid "Oooh... Ahhh..." thing when a scroll is displayed. Yet another guild is formed with great pomp and circumstance.

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).
