One of Netflix's most popular shows, Stranger Things, aired its fourth season over the summer. Suppose you have not watched the series—no need to worry. There will be no spoilers here.
The show has a world hidden in a parallel reality to the town of Hawkins, Indiana, called The Upside Down. This place is gross, dark, and stale. Hawkins, Indiana, is far from normal but is usually calm, peaceful, and efficient. A town's description is usually not described as "stale" or "efficient," but it will make sense in a second.
How the season ends for the Dallas Cowboys in 2022 could reflect either reality of the town in the show.
