The cup is small and fits perfectly in the sink disposal hole. There is no way to grab an edge with tongs or pliers.

Let any water evaporate in the sink and glass (let it sit overnight if you have been using the sink). Get a 3/8" wood dowel rod and heat up a hot glue gun. Put a glob of hot glue on the tip of the rod and push it down against the cup. Give it about 1 minute then gently lift it straight out. The glue should easily pull off the glass cup once it's out. If it is full of water already, do the same thing, only use clear plumbers goop. It will take a lot longer to dry, but it's water proof and will do the job.

Pour dish detergent around the outside rim of the glass and let it run down. Put a couple of spoons in the glass and cover them with about an inch of rubber cement. You can get this at any hardware store or Wal-mart. Let dry. Pull the spoons and hopefully the glass will also come up. The rubber cement will come off the glass and spoons. Worth a try.

This may sound silly but it might work; if you have any old wax candles melt some wax and put a stick or something in the middle. when the wax hardens you should be able to pull it out.
If it's really stuck, use dishsoap around the outside as others suggested as well. Between the two, you should be ok without having to break the glass.

Not much you can do other than.... one sharp blow with the handle of a case( butter) knife will knock the bottom out of the cup. Then another blow to the side will let it break into large pieces. Remove the large peices ( carefully of course). Small shards of glass will make a lot of noise, but won't hurt the disposal.

Pour a little bit of dishwashing liquid along the side of the glass to loosen it up. Then us something you can slide down between the glass and the sink, like a knife. When you pull the knife out kind of angle the bottom towards the glass and pull out slowly. The glass will come out slowly or atleast enough for you to pull the glass out with your hand.
Good Luck.

FIRST disconnect all electrical source to the disposal.
You can try to remove the unit from underneath the sink and maybe push in an upwards direction to loosen it.
Try putting WD40 around the cup and pull it out.
Hope that helps!
Good luck

Well, if you are sure there is no way to grab it to get it out....maybe you should break it and then use the tongs to get the broken pieces out of the disposal.

Dry everything up around the sink so there is not water and if you have a vacuum with a hose you can use it to suck the glass out of there. Done it myself!
