Trimarian Court Bingo

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

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).
