Sometime last night Jersey Shore's Snooki was trapped inside of a clear ball that was dropped (what, 15 feet?) during a fake New Year's Eve countdown. And that is just one of the many reasons we're ready to put an end to 2010. To recap, the Jersey Shore starlet was supposed to do this in Times Square tonight, during the real countdown to 2011, but she was banished to Seaside Heights. The taping of the stunt last night will air on MTV tonight, and Snooki is already back in NYC pre-gaming.
