AA Attack out of IAH: SFO, SEA, (+others?) 130+ (Sat Night Req)

Heads up IAH'ers -- obviously not really a MR, but an excellent fare if you're looking for positioning flights to the west coast, or just want an excuse to get out of town for a bit, it looks like AA is aiming at UA.

Found $130 (+tax) to SFO and SEA with a 10day min purchase and Sat night stay required. Not sure what other cities are included, if any.

I see the fare on ExpertFlyer, and in fact one cheaper at $116, and I see someone found the $116 fare once on Kayak, but I can't find any more examples. Looks like it's valid for all dates, three day min return or Sat return, whichever is earlier.
