Trimarian Court Bingo

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

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).
