Battery Stuck

I was swapping the battery out on my 2008 Fat Bob and can't get the old battery out. It wiggles a little and seems like it's just wedged in there. There is not a lot of grip to get the battery out, but I'm wondering if there is some other way to remove the plastic housing area or something.
Thanks for any help or tips.

Welcome to the forum from ND. I had a similar issue with my Night Train recently. I found that swearing loudly and rapidly helps a lot.

Swearing works and like my dad always says don't use more force just use a bigger hammer.
