Default Over-calling an all-in with three-way action at the final table

This hand recently occured at a local MTT that a friend and I played in. It was a $200+RA with I believe 18 players. Payouts were approximately $3150/$1700/$1050/700/350, in case that's relevant.

It was down to the final three. Blinds 1200/2400 with 100 ante. My friend was the chip leader.

Stacks:
Button: ~23,000
Small blind: ~27,000
Big blind (hero): ~60,000

The button was a very good but very aggressive player who had shown that he could push with a wide range of hands.

The SB was the host of the tournament who is a very solid TAG player.

Action:
Button pushes all-in, SB pushes all-in (pretty much instantly), hero looks down and finds QQ... hero says "I shouldn't, but I call".

Afterwards I expressed my surprise that it was a crying call there, and he said he thought it wasn't that clear. I've since come to my own conclusion on the situation, but I was hoping to get some alternate points of view... so... easy call? easy fold? something else?
