Thanks SANman, great find!
It looks like the fare is now gone, but I was able to book a couple of roundtrips yesterday for next year and a fraction of the usual cost.

nimj and jaimelannister, I'm so confused by the "my account" tab on the AA website. For redeemable miles, it shows a flight from Austin to Dallas as 1000 miles. But when I click on million miler miles, it's back down to 183. (I had assumed EQMs match the million miler miles). So does this trip earn miles at 3 different rates: 183 for MM, 500 for EQM, and 1000 for RDM? I guess that's good news but what a pain to track.
