A local Toronto girl seems to be a pretty big fan of ‘Jersey Shore,’ because she has created a Facebook group titled ‘Snooki’s a Bargain - Let’s Bring her to Toronto’ to raise $2500 to get Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi to make an appearance at a local nightclub.
Laura-Louise Tobin, the Jersey Shore fan at hand, said Snooki was the cheapest of the Jersey Shore cast and thought $2,000 would be easy to raise. The Facebook group to get Snooki of ‘Jersey Shore’ to Toronto currently has 92 members and is almost halfway to the goal of a glorified night on the town with Snooki.
