Trimarian Court Bingo

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

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).
