Can I tunnel TCP over SNMP?

I've heard of data leaks from bad dudes tunnelling data in DNS type traffic, so I'm sure it can be done.  The level of effort is the question...

Subject: Can I tunnel TCP over SNMP?

In my hotel WiFi is supposed to work, but something is broken, and  
only SNMP can pass through. I have my host outside, that replies to  
SNMP (pings).

Maybe this is a crazy question, but is is possible to tunnel TCP over  
SNMP? I know SNMP ping can carry payload back and forth. I could set  
up the squid under the tunnel on my outside host and HTTP forwarding  
here on my laptop.

So is such tunneling possible?

Yuri
