I'm just glad i won

But seriously, was my call too loose pre-flop given all the aggression?

Where is this table, so that I can sit at it?

Its really hard to say. Normally all in with AQ is.... just plain bad. But at this table where everyone seems totally batshit, it might actually be a sane call.

The key with going all in is you just to have ask yourself: "What hands do I beat?"

AQ beats AJ & lesser aces, KQ, and KJ. If your opponents aren't going all in with any of those hands, then you better be folding AQ preflop, unless you're getting compelling pot odds.

So at a sane table, where KQ & AJ aren't enough to stack off with, you'll want to fold this preflop. But as you can see from the hand history, AJ was actually one of the hands you were against :O

Also, you might want to consider 3-betting this preflop to isolate the original raiser, but that's a move usually reserved for tighter tables/opponents. So in this case, you generally want to see the flop as cheaply as possible.
