The only place where it would be appropriate to fold AA pre-flop is on the bubble of a satellite or DoN, in this specific case: you have more than enough chips to make it past the bubble, someone else has shoved, and if you call and lose you will either be severely crippled or knocked out. In this particular case, you're risking everything for virtually no gain.

I made this mistake last night on the bubble in a DoN with AA in the SB and while I didn't lose, I still am not happy about the way I put my whole stack at risk against the chip leader when there was a much shorter stack on the table. This should have been a snap fold but I was kind of tilted from getting rivered out of two games earlier.

In cash games and regular tournaments, you shouldn't be folding AA pre-flop ever. It's scary when you have a multi-way all-in, but in tournaments if you were to win that would often give you a massive stack and a good shot at first place.
