Is the steering wheel locked? if so, wiggle the steering wheel back and forth while takin the key out, i did the same thing when i got my car, and i was like O **** WTF!? and that fixed my problems lol

Take a chain...hook one end to a pickup truck, the other end to the key. Pull...
Okay, seriously, just wiggle it like a son of a bitch. If it really is stuck, you'll need a new ignition, or just tear yours apart. Buying a new ignition sucks since the new key won't open the locks, so just take the steering wheel off, and go at the ignition that is screwed up.
