Trimarian Court Bingo

The Crown calls someone up to give them an award, and starts with "You've been bad..." Audible laughter at an inappropriate time from the naughty Peers standing in the back. Court is more than one hour late. Someone uses the phrase, "I beg a boon!" Award of Arms scroll begins with something other than the phrase "Praiseworthy are those..."
Somebody does court schtick which is apparently supposed to be funny... but it isn't. Yet another guild is formed with great pomp and circumstance. Someone who kneels before the Thrones really should have been wearing underwear. Earl Benen disrupts court with his madcap hijinks. The Order of the White Scarf hold a faux Knighting ceremony.
"Anno Societatis" pronounced in more than one way by Court Herald(s). Somebody makes a completely inaudible presentation to the Crown. FREE SPACE Clothing fashions are visibly influenced by a recent movie. 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. The Queen has a triskele somewhere on her garb. Two Peers take a joint Associate. Royal Retainer picks his or her nose.
The Court Herald mispronounces somebody's name. King Odo says that someone "rocks". Somebody says "Busted!" to the recipient of an award. Person called before the Crown has to be coaxed to come forward far enough to kneel on the pillows. Yet another Kingdom office changes hands.

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).
