Trimarian Court Bingo

Court is more than one hour late. Somebody makes a completely inaudible presentation to the Crown. The Court Herald announces somebody whose name is a bad pun. Someone uses the phrase, "I beg a boon!" The Court Herald mispronounces somebody's name.
Two Peers take a joint Associate. The crowd does that stupid "Oooh... Ahhh..." thing when a scroll is displayed. Somebody does court schtick which is apparently supposed to be funny... but it isn't. Person called before the Crown has to be coaxed to come forward far enough to kneel on the pillows. Audible laughter at an inappropriate time from the naughty Peers standing in the back.
Every single Herald comes up to "elevate" one of their members for passing a test. The Order of the White Scarf hold a faux Knighting ceremony. FREE SPACE Somebody drops the Sword of State. Earl Benen disrupts court with his madcap hijinks.
Someone who kneels before the Thrones really should have been wearing underwear. Clothing fashions are visibly influenced by a recent movie. Yet another Kingdom office changes hands. Female retainer wearing a dress is holding a spear. 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. Award of Arms scroll begins with something other than the phrase "Praiseworthy are those..." The Queen has a triskele somewhere on her garb. Royal Retainer picks his or her nose. "Anno Societatis" pronounced in more than one way by Court Herald(s).

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).
