Sundays in Massachusetts

In Massachusetts, it is illegal to attend or participate in dancing, games, fairs, sports, plays, or other public diversion for which a fee is charged on Sunday unless the appropriate license has been obtained. (Mass. Gen. Laws ch. 136 § 2)

The peculiar part of this is that folk dancing and square dancing are exceptions. So unlicensed ballroom or disco dancing on Sunday is illegal, but unlicensed square or folk dancing on Sunday is legal.
