“I’ve often thought that if I could get the word out somehow to get the stories, I should put a book together of the stories that these 49er fans lived through at that moment. Hopefully, long after I’m gone, 49er fans will still enjoy that play and that year — that team that started it all.”
— Dwight Clark, February 22, 2018
