This is a wild table.

Is there any way I don't lose a huge pot here?

Limit; 6 players

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is SB with A♦ A♥
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, CO calls, Button folds, Hero raises, BB calls, UTG+1 calls, CO calls.

Flop: A♣ 5♠ 4♠ (6SB, 4 players)
Hero bets, BB folds, UTG+1 raises, CO calls, Hero 3-bets, UTG+1 caps, CO calls, Hero calls.

Turn: J♠ (9BB, 3 players)
Hero bets, UTG+1 raises, CO calls, Hero 3-bets, UTG+1 calls all-in $1.5, CO caps, Hero calls.

River: 2♠ (19.38BB, 2 players + 1 all-in - Main pot: 16.13BB, Sidepot 1: 3.25BB)
Hero checks, CO bets, Hero calls.

Results:
Final pot: 21.38BB
T

G+1 showed Kh As
CO showed Ks Ts
Hero showed Ad Ah

That's bad news when CO woke up on the turn.  Getting 20:1 you only have to see JJ 5% to break even. 

I believe this is where the term crying call came from.

Well I have up to ten full outs once the flush arrives on the turn. I can't fold. Grr.

I don't expect the case ace to be in the deck, but any 4, 5, or J fills me up to a full house.

The turn's fine the river is the tough call.  Can you beat two players who both really like their hand on this board more that 1 out of 20?  It's possible you have a rare set over set over set hand but not likely.  I still pay it off for one bet.

Oh, I completely agree. I call on the river expecting to win less than 5% of the time, but I'll call every time in this situation, ironically enough.

The key is here you said they were wild players. I think you played fine if they are loony. You can do value bets and raises all day with hands like that one.

If there is only one player that seems reasonable, however, I would have still seen the river, but I would have slowed it down once I seen that turn card. Probalbly still bet the turn, but not 3-bet it.
