Trimarian Court Bingo

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