Live MTT - Parx Big Stax $300+40, ITM Fold KK pre?

Hi Guys,

Im new to the site and wanted to get your thoughts on a hand I played last weekend.
$300+$40
1800 entrants
175 remaining
Avg: 275k
blinds: 3000/6000
My effective stack= 350k
Villain = 400k+

I open from UTG+1 to 15k.. It folds to the button (tight player) who raises to 33k... It comes back around to me and I 4bet to 80k.... The button almost immediately 5 bets shoves... I tank for more than a minute and cry call only to see exactly what I had expected... AA. I lose and go to the cage to collect my min cash driving myself crazy asking if I can find a fold here...
My guess is that for for online MTTs, this is likely a call 100% of the time given the volume of tourneys available.. but this was a live event that comes around only 4 times a year, with $100,000+ up top...

Can I ever find a fold here? Ive heard a lot of good players say they never fold KK pre, but I feel most times Im in this spot and cry call, my instinct is usually right and they have AA... With that being said, Im not always folding to a 5 bet shove here, and most commonly when I do call and it feels right, Im right.. but these spots against these players, I feel like KK is a fold.
