Stanley recently introduced the shifted parking function symmetric function $SH_n$, which is the shiftification of Haiman's parking function symmetric function $PF_n$. The function $SH_n$ lives in the subalgebra of symmetric functions generated by odd power sums. Stanley showed how to expand $SH_n$ into the $V-$basis of this algebra, which is indexed by partitions with all parts odd and is analogous to the complete homogeneous (or elementary) basis of symmetric functions. We introduce odd shifted parking functions to give combinatorial and representation-theoretic realizations of the $V-$expansion of $SH_n$, resolving the main open problem in his paper. Further, we present two representation-theoretic realizations of shiftification allowing us to interpret $SH_n$ as the spin character of a projective representation. We conclude with further directions, including a relationship between $SH_n$ and Haglund's $(q,t)-$Schröder theorem.
