Default grass stuck in between the wheel/tire, anyway to get out?

well it was raining today. and i lost control on the highway with my bald DR's and nailed the side grass/dirty mound. Now there is grass stuck in between the wheel and the tire. It looks like they only way to get it out is to take the tire off? anyone have any ideas besides taking the tire off. It still holds air.
