Is it a good or bad idea to bring Beau with me to the APBT show on Saturday??

He'll be in a crate and I know in the rules that any dog not being shown needs to be in the crate unless it's on the bathroom break. But I might be going to some state parks after I leave the show, and when I go to state parks I ALWAYS bring Beau, so it would make sense to bring him. But would that be okay?? I'll be bringing a 4 foot leash as well instead of his 6 foot leash and his crate will be padlocked shut. I'll be keeping him in the back of Explorer in his crate with the back door open, and we'll be parked in the shade.

Also when I was there last March, I saw a bunch of people walking around American Bullies and "Pet Bulls", I think I saw a couple of other breeds as well.

So I was wondering good idea or bad idea?
