Trimarian Court Bingo

Yet another Kingdom office changes hands. The Order of the White Scarf hold a faux Knighting ceremony. Every single Herald comes up to "elevate" one of their members for passing a test. Somebody makes a completely inaudible presentation to the Crown. 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. Royal Retainer picks his or her nose. Award of Arms scroll begins with something other than the phrase "Praiseworthy are those..." Female retainer wearing a dress is holding a spear.
The crowd does that stupid "Oooh... Ahhh..." thing when a scroll is displayed. The Crown calls someone up to give them an award, and starts with "You've been bad..." FREE SPACE The Court Herald mispronounces somebody's name. Somebody does court schtick which is apparently supposed to be funny... but it isn't.
The Court Herald announces somebody whose name is a bad pun. The Crown gives out no awards with the word "Argent" in their names. Someone uses the phrase, "I beg a boon!" Two Peers take a joint Associate. King Odo says that someone "rocks".
The Crown gives three or more awards to their own retainers and/or household. The Queen has a triskele somewhere on her garb. Audible laughter at an inappropriate time from the naughty Peers standing in the back. Yet another guild is formed with great pomp and circumstance. Somebody says "Busted!" to the recipient of an award.

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).
