what the....??

Okay, so I found this crazy-looking thing in my yard a couple weeks ago. I think it has to be some sort of fungus because it was dead and gone the next day. It was a couple shades of red, smelled awful and had a nasty slime at the top of it. Be prepared to vurp (vomit+burp) if you choose to click on the photos for a closer look...it's really gross. Any guesses on what it is?

UPDATE: It's called a STINKHORN! The official name is Mutinus elegans...
