Trimarian Court Bingo

The Court Herald mispronounces somebody's name. The Crown gives three or more awards to their own retainers and/or household. King Odo says that someone "rocks". Yet another guild is formed with great pomp and circumstance. Two Peers take a joint Associate.
Somebody makes a completely inaudible presentation to the Crown. 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. Someone uses the phrase, "I beg a boon!"
The Court Herald announces somebody whose name is a bad pun. "Anno Societatis" pronounced in more than one way by Court Herald(s). FREE SPACE Somebody drops the Sword of State. Court is more than one hour late.
Earl Benen disrupts court with his madcap hijinks. Somebody says "Busted!" to the recipient of an award. Award of Arms scroll begins with something other than the phrase "Praiseworthy are those..." Royal Retainer picks his or her nose. Somebody does court schtick which is apparently supposed to be funny... but it isn't.
Person called before the Crown has to be coaxed to come forward far enough to kneel on the pillows. Every single Herald comes up to "elevate" one of their members for passing a test. Yet another Kingdom office changes hands. The crowd does that stupid "Oooh... Ahhh..." thing when a scroll is displayed. The Order of the White Scarf hold a faux Knighting ceremony.

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).
