Rice voiced admiration for the ambassadors' joyful spirits.
"Oh my gosh. He's the best guy, and he's my number one football player ever," said Chris McElroy from United Airlines.
"I get to help customers and greet them and hopefully tag their bags here at the airport," McElroy said.
"I'm just so excited to expand it here," said Lori Augustine, vice president of the San Francisco hub.
"Their personality, they're always happy. I wish I could be like that. I wish I could be happy every day and they just rub off on you."
