Trimarian Court Bingo

The Order of the White Scarf hold a faux Knighting ceremony. Royal Retainer picks his or her nose. Yet another guild is formed with great pomp and circumstance. Clothing fashions are visibly influenced by a recent movie. The Crown gives three or more awards to their own retainers and/or household.
"Anno Societatis" pronounced in more than one way by Court Herald(s). Audible laughter at an inappropriate time from the naughty Peers standing in the back. The Crown calls someone up to give them an award, and starts with "You've been bad..." Court is more than one hour late. Someone who kneels before the Thrones really should have been wearing underwear.
Yet another Kingdom office changes hands. King Odo says that someone "rocks". FREE SPACE Somebody makes a completely inaudible presentation to the Crown. The Queen has a triskele somewhere on her garb.
Female retainer wearing a dress is holding a spear. Somebody does court schtick which is apparently supposed to be funny... but it isn't. The Crown gives out no awards with the word "Argent" in their names. Person called before the Crown has to be coaxed to come forward far enough to kneel on the pillows. Earl Benen disrupts court with his madcap hijinks.
Every single Herald comes up to "elevate" one of their members for passing a test. The crowd does that stupid "Oooh... Ahhh..." thing when a scroll is displayed. Two Peers take a joint Associate. Someone uses the phrase, "I beg a boon!" 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).
