In episode two of Out in GayCities season four, Max Emerson and Kyle Krieger learn about the history of the Krewe of Armeinius, a New Orleans-based organization whose mission it is to preserve the traditions of gay Mardi Gras. Watch as the duo explore the krewe's costume den and then face off in an epic battle royale!
