I have come across networks that filter everything but a few TCP ports (like 80 and 443)

Another point scored for TCP in TCP with an SSL VPN. :-)

Only if your TCP VPN is listening on one of the allowed ports ;-)

(I do keep a TCP VPN running on port 443 ready to go for these situations, but UDP is always my first choice.)
