Dad Surprised With Beer Model Wife's Tin Tacker After Decades Of Searching

A dad who spent 37 YEARS trying to track down a tin tacker from when his wife was a beer model in the 80s was given a hilarious surprise when his family managed to buy one for him. Bryan and Nadia Corlett, from Newport Beach, California, started dating in their early 20s, at which time Nadia was working as an actress and a model. She worked on a campaign for Miller Lite in 1986, and the couple later discovered the tin tacker sign hanging in their local bar. Bryan asked the owner if he could purchase it, but, according to the family, the owner refused, and when he returned at a later date, the poster was gone – setting off a decadeslong search. He always looked out in different bars with no luck, and then, with the widespread implementation of the Internet, his search turned digital – still to no avail. But in 2025, with the story having become legend, Bryan's family decided to take a fresh look themselves.
