Best Answer

Jesters got their jobs because they were naturally funny people. Some of them were theater types who got jobs offered to them, but some where just individuals some lord liked, hired, and recommended to a higher lord as a favor. The later could be of almost any class, but the ones who made it to a king's household had to be pretty well aware of how to conduct themselves at court. This meant that the most successful jesters probably came from families that had some position in society and were educated to some degree.
