Rice Keeps Football Players Fueled, One Gummy Worm at a Time

They say not all heroes wear capes.

That’s the case with Daniel Domian, a strength and conditioning intern for Rice. He wears a hat, sunglasses and a black glove on one hand with a plastic bag full of gummy worms in the other. He is Rice football’s gummy worm guy, and he keeps the Owls refueled during games—one small confectionery treat at a time.

Some say he has the most important job in football… #GummyWormGuy @BussinWTB pic.twitter.com/ATx094ppHy
