'Stranger Things': Season 3 might just revisit the legendary Mets vs Braves game of July 4, 1985

That game had quite a number of instances that could be well used on the show but in order to find that out we still have three more months to go.

Things are about to get very strange on Season 3 of 'Stranger Things', and let's just say, the Duffer Brothers (Matt and Ross Duffer) might have just left behind the biggest clue of the upcoming season. Starring Millie Bobby Brown (Eleven), Finn Wolfhard (Mike), Caleb McLaughlin (Lucas), Gaten Matarazzo (Dustin), Noah Schnapp (Will), and Sadie Sink (Max), 'Stranger Things' tells you the story of an alternate dimension in an extremely authentic '80s style. While the previous two seasons, touched upon the gloomy view of an '80s Hawkins, Season 3 is bringing everything that had defined the decade. 

However, among all the clues that the creators have left us with, it is strange that until now no one spoke about that date which was being highlighted on the trailer of the release date. With the ball dropping to welcome the year 1985, the trailer gives us a glimpse of the date July 4, 1985. We all know what happened on that day, the legendary showdown between Mets and Braves had shocked almost everyone who was there watching that game that day. In case, you have been living under the rock and have no clue what we are talking about, just know this game was never supposed to happen. After a delay of almost two hours due to incessant pouring, the field at Fulton County Stadium was nothing more than a swamp. Rings a bell?
