Trimarian Court Bingo

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. Court is more than one hour late. Somebody says "Busted!" to the recipient of an award.
King Odo says that someone "rocks". Royal Retainer picks his or her nose. The Court Herald announces somebody whose name is a bad pun. Someone who kneels before the Thrones really should have been wearing underwear. Female retainer wearing a dress is holding a spear.
Clothing fashions are visibly influenced by a recent movie. "Anno Societatis" pronounced in more than one way by Court Herald(s). FREE SPACE Two Peers take a joint Associate. Audible laughter at an inappropriate time from the naughty Peers standing in the back.
The Crown gives out no awards with the word "Argent" in their names. The Court Herald mispronounces somebody's name. The Queen has a triskele somewhere on her garb. Yet another guild is formed with great pomp and circumstance. Award of Arms scroll begins with something other than the phrase "Praiseworthy are those..."
Somebody makes a completely inaudible presentation to the Crown. Every single Herald comes up to "elevate" one of their members for passing a test. 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. Somebody drops the Sword of State.

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).

The Quarter - Forsooth. Forsooth.
