Default QQ Facing 3 shoves. Can this be a fold?

Don’t have HH here, but this is a fairly accurate recollection of the situation I think.

22 left in the $50 1r 1a. 18 spots pay.

We’re 8 handed. I’m in the CO and the blinds are 400/800/ante (75?).

People involved in the hand:
Me ~13K
Button ~5K (been v-tight & blinding down)
SB ~19K (BodogAri… has only joined the table about 2 orbits ago and hasn’t been very active but AFAIK is a pretty aggressive player)
BB ~17K (nothing stuck out in my mind about this bloke).

I’m dealt QQ & it’s folded to me. I make my standard raise to 2K. Button shoves, Ari shoves, BB shoves. Action back to me.

Is there any chance I’m folding this? ATM the largest stack in the tourney is about 30K. Winning this hand would give me over 40K. Folding leaves me 11K & probably about 16th of however many remain after the carnage of this hand.

My thoughts are that Ari doesn’t necessarily have a big hand here – he’s a bit of a push-monkey and has seen me steal the blinds about 3 times in the 2 orbits he’s been here. I don’t think he has to be strong in this position. BB on the other hand, I hadn’t seen get too far out of line, so his shove set off alarm bells.

Is this a ridiculously easy call given the price I’m getting? Anyone care to guess what the others were actually holding?
