MIAMI, Fla. -- The last time the 49ers played a Super Bowl in Miami, their quarterback tossed six touchdown passes.

Then, he tossed his cookies on the limo ride back from the stadium.

The 49ers last won a Super Bowl 25 years ago. Steve Young threw for six touchdown passes in the 49’ers 49-26 victory over the San Diego Chargers in Super Bowl XXIX.

Young completed 24 of 36 pass attempts for 325 yards in the rout. He was named the Super Bowl MVP with his record day for touchdown passes, and he proclaimed he got the monkey off his back after years of being compared to Joe Montana.

Agent Leigh Steinberg, who represented Young, just as vividly remembers what happened after the game.

“I kept him doing interviews for so long, we’re in a limo on the way back and he said, ‘I’m feeling sick.’ I said, ‘You are?’ And he said, ‘No, really sick.’ And all of a sudden he threw up in the limo,” Steinberg said on Wednesday from Radio Row.

While everyone else was back at the team hotel celebrating the 49ers’ fifth Super Bowl title, Young was in no shape to party due to dehydration.

“We go back to the hotel and the entire place is filled with jubilant 49ers fans and players, and Steve is up in his room on an IV,” Steinberg said.
