On Thursday, Amazon announced the 20 cities that are finalists in its search for a second headquarters. But maybe another city should be in the running.

Streaming service Netflix, home of the hit show "Stranger Things," (and a competitor of Amazon Video) tweeted that the Seattle-based company should consider the show's fictional hometown of Hawkins, Indiana. The company was even willing to sweeten the deal with a bribe of a whopping $11, obviously in honor of Millie Bobby Brown's character, Eleven. Also, they delivered a "waffling" joke, marking Eleven's favorite food, Eggos.
